From the beaches of Long Island, to Niagara Falls and the Finger Lakes out west, to the Catskill and Adirondack Mountains in the north, New York is filled with natural wonders and smaller, quieter towns.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 350 independent living communities in New York.

My father in law is doing okay here at this community, he is still adjusting, but they are caring for him well. We do feel comfortable with his move to this community, it is a nice place. [Removed] is amazing. She was great to work with, she was very helpful, and understanding. The front desk receptionist isn't very pleasant, but the rest of the staff is very kind, and helpful. His room is well maintained when we visit, but the guest restroom could be better maintained. They have been very accommodating, and this is a community I would recommend.
Read moreWe chose The Chelsea because of the close location, I am able to get there quick if I need to and it is so nice having her that close. The room sizes are very nice, she has more than enough room for what she needs. It is a very warm and inviting environment, all of the staff are so caring. It has given me great peace of mind having her here and I would definitely recommend them to others who are looking.
Read moreIt's been seven years that mom became a widow with the past three seeing her social connections dropping off - especially during COVID. So, after forty years of living in Florida, I brought mom to live near me in the Atria Rye Brook. Although there are many Atria facilities located near me the Atria Rye Brook stood out from the others! From the moment we stepped inside the atmosphere was bright and could not be more welcoming. ALL staff are friendly, know the residents by first names, and the daily activities are numerous. No longer alone, mom joins other residents in the dining hall during her meals and spends quality time with her peers - not to mention the card games they schedule on a daily/weekly basis. Mom has the best of both worlds: she is able to enjoy an active social life at Atria Rye Brook as well as spend weekends with me visiting her grand- and great-grandchildren. I truly wish mom had moved here sooner!!!!
