The Great Kills market specifically

Great Kills draws comparisons to Eltingville just south of it -- both are SIR hubs, but Great Kills has the larger concentration of senior centers.

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.

Ask for a blank copy to take home before you are asked to sign anything.

Questions families ask

What does the Long-Term Care Ombudsman actually do for a Staten Island family?

The ombudsman advocates for a resident of a long-term care facility, independent of the state regulator, and can attend care conferences with a family. It does not license, inspect or fine a facility -- that is NYSDOH's role. Staten Island's ombudsman coverage runs through CIDNY's NYC-region program at 1-888-855-9807.

How do I reach the Long-Term Care Ombudsman that covers Staten Island specifically?

Staten Island falls under the New York City region (Region 3) of the Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program, sponsored by the Center for Independence of the Disabled, New York (CIDNY), reachable at 1-888-855-9807 or ltcop@cidny.org. The statewide LTCOP hotline is 1-855-582-6769.

Does the ombudsman need my parent's consent before getting involved?

Yes. The ombudsman acts only with the consent of the resident, or their legal representative if the resident lacks capacity to consent. This surprises many adult children, particularly when a parent with intact decision-making capacity does not want a complaint pursued that the family feels strongly about.

What's the practical difference between calling the ombudsman and calling NYSDOH's complaint line?

The ombudsman advocates for an individual resident and can help resolve a dispute or attend a care conference, but cannot license, inspect, or fine a facility. NYSDOH's Metropolitan Area Regional Office ((212) 417-5990 for Adult Care Facilities, (212) 417-4999 for nursing homes) investigates regulatory complaints and can take enforcement action.
