What to watch for with in-home care near Fort Wadsworth

Questions families ask

Does Richmond County have its own separate Adult Protective Services office?

Not a fully separate county-run agency in the way some other New York counties operate. Staten Island's APS function runs through NYC HRA's Office of Special Services, with a dedicated borough-level phone line, (929) 221-8794, rather than a standalone Richmond County department of social services running its own independent APS program.

Does Staten Island have its own dedicated Long-Term Care Ombudsman region?

No -- Staten Island falls under the New York City region (Region 3) of the statewide Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, sponsored by CIDNY, which covers all five boroughs together rather than maintaining a separate Staten Island-specific ombudsman region.

Independent living vs. assisted living -- what's the actual difference in New York?

Independent living is generally unlicensed housing in New York, since no personal care is provided. Assisted living requires a base Adult Care Facility license plus Assisted Living Residence (ALR) certification under 10 NYCRR Part 1001, issued and inspected by NYSDOH.
