What the contract does that the tour does not

The residency agreement decides what happens when things change: how care levels are reassessed and repriced, how much notice is required on either side, what the deposit covers and whether it is refundable.

Questions families ask

What is New York's nursing home Personal Needs Allowance, and why is it so low?

New York's nursing home resident Personal Needs Allowance (PNA) is $50 per month -- unchanged since the 1980s, and among the lowest in the country; 33 states pay more, in a $52-$200 range. A 2024 state senate bill proposed raising it to $128, but it has not been enacted, and the PNA remains $50/month.

What are New York's 2026 spousal impoverishment protections?

For 2026, New York's Community Spouse Resource Allowance runs from a state minimum of $74,820 up to a federal maximum of $162,660 (the community spouse keeps the greater of the state minimum or half of countable resources, up to the federal max), with a Minimum Monthly Maintenance Needs Allowance of $4,066.50/month, per NYSDOH GIS 26 MA/03.

What is the NYC-region MLTC special income standard, and does it apply to Staten Island?

Yes -- the NYC-region MLTC special income standard for housing expenses is $1,790/month, effective January 1, 2026, per NYSDOH GIS 26 MA/03. This applies to Staten Island because Richmond County is part of the New York City region for MLTC purposes, distinct from Long Island's separate $1,701 figure.

What does assisted living cost on Staten Island?

There is no published Staten Island-specific figure. The 2025 CareScout Cost of Care Survey publishes a New York STATE median of $7,110/month for a private one-bedroom assisted living unit -- a statewide figure, not a New York City or Staten Island number, and local pricing in the city likely runs higher.
