The Tompkinsville market specifically

Tompkinsville's dense, older multifamily housing stock already contains several senior and assisted-living residences, and Richmond University Medical Center is close enough for families to lean on for a discharge referral.

Families comparing Tompkinsville to St. George usually weigh its lower cost of entry against St. George's proximity to the courts and county offices.

Before you sign anything

Get the all-in monthly cost in writing at your parent's current assessed care level, ask what triggers the next care level and what it costs, and ask for the rate increase history across the last three years. Communities that will not put these in writing are telling you something.

Ask what happens if private funds run out, and whether the community holds a Medicaid waiver provider agreement. A meaningful share of communities do not, which means a second move at the worst possible time.

You can check any facility's record free. NYS Health Profiles (profiles.health.ny.gov) publishes free license status and inspection history for every Adult Care Facility and nursing home. Read the full explanation →

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.
