Questions families ask

Is Richmond County under mandatory Managed Long Term Care enrollment?

Yes. Mandatory MLTC enrollment in New York City -- including Richmond County/Staten Island -- began under Medicaid Redesign Team Initiative #90, approved August 31, 2012. New York City was actually the first region in New York State to require mandatory MLTC enrollment, ahead of the later rollout on Long Island.

Where is Richmond County's seat, and why does that matter for elder-law needs?

St. George is Richmond County's seat, home to Staten Island Borough Hall (10 Richmond Terrace) and the Richmond County Courthouse. Elder-law attorneys, guardianship proceedings, and other legal matters tied to senior care planning typically run through this North Shore hub.

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.
