In Nassau County, memory care facilities comply with regulations set by the New York Department of Health. This department sets minimum standards for staffing, the scope of care and care planning. It also ensures residents’ safety by conducting criminal background checks on potential employees.
In Nassau County, seniors obtain memory care services in assisted living facilities that are licensed to provide this level of care. No authoritative data sources outline nationwide memory care costs, but because rates are typically 20-30% higher than standard assisted living, we calculate local care costs by adding 25% to assisted living rates in the Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey.
In Nassau County, seniors pay $7,188 for residential dementia services, making this among the costlier places in the state and nation for this level of care. In New York as a whole, care costs are considerably lower at $5,725, and nationally, seniors pay $5,625. In the Utica area, monthly fees are equal to the national average at $5,625, and in Rochester, care costs are among the lowest in the state at $4,719. In the Albany area, rates average $6,586, and in Ithaca, memory care is several thousand dollars more per month at $10,094.
