Questions families ask

My spouse needs more care than I can safely provide alone. What are our options?

Look at communities that keep couples together across care levels, be honest with yourself about your own health and capacity (spousal caregivers routinely under-report their own decline), and understand New York's specific spousal Medicaid protections -- the Community Spouse Resource Allowance and Minimum Monthly Maintenance Needs Allowance -- before assuming a spouse's care will exhaust shared savings.

I'm exhausted and I don't think I can keep doing this alone. What should I actually do?

Take the exhaustion seriously as a real, measurable risk factor -- caregiver strain predicts worse outcomes for both the caregiver and the person receiving care. Use respite and adult day health care before reaching a breaking point, contact NYC Aging (DFTA) through CASC for free local support programs, and get an outside, objective opinion on the current care plan.

What county is Staten Island, and does that matter for senior care planning?

Staten Island IS Richmond County -- New York City's smallest borough by population, at roughly 495,747 residents per the 2020 Census, and its only borough that is also a single, standalone county. That matters because every county-level resource on this site -- APS, the ombudsman, NY Connects -- applies uniformly across the whole borough.

Who is the Area Agency on Aging for Richmond County?

NYC Aging (DFTA, the New York City Department for the Aging) is the Area Agency on Aging covering all of Richmond County/Staten Island, reachable by dialing 311 within NYC or (212) 244-6469 from outside. The local NY Connects access point is the Community Agency for Senior Citizens (CASC), (718) 489-3954.
