Questions families ask

Are online reviews a reliable way to judge a Buffalo-area senior care community?

Online reviews and New York's regulatory inspection record measure different things. A community can have glowing reviews and open licensing correction orders at the same time — check both, not just one.

Who do I call to file a complaint against a licensed senior care facility in Erie or Niagara County?

Complaints about a licensed Adult Care Facility, ALR, or nursing home's compliance should go through the New York State Department of Health's facility complaint process, separate from Adult Protective Services (which handles suspected abuse/neglect of a specific person).

What does assisted living actually cost in New York State?

The 2024 CareScout Cost of Care Survey puts New York's assisted living median at $75,600 per year, or roughly $6,300 per month. This is a statewide figure — there is no published Buffalo-metro-specific median.

What does a nursing home cost in the Buffalo area?

New York's 2024 CareScout median for a semi-private nursing home room is $176,660 per year (about $14,722/month); a private room runs $186,698 per year (about $15,558/month) — again, statewide figures, not Buffalo-specific.
