DOH: “The Department conducts inspections for certification purposes every 12 to 18 months at each ACF, as well as follow-up inspections to ensure that any previously cited deficiencies are corrected. Additional investigations are conducted as a result of complaints and incident reports received by the Department.” DOH: “Violations under dispute through the Inspection Review Process (IRP) are not displayed.” Under 18 NYCRR Part 486, DOH may assess civil penalties against an adult care facility for violating its regulations. This community is certified for 105 residents; larger communities are inspected and reported on more often, so read counts with size in mind. Inspection reports themselves are not online; you can request copies from DOH (how to request reports), and each facility must post its most recent report in a public area.

Emergency and natural hazard riskFEMA overall risk relatively low; outside FEMA's high-risk flood areas
Public hazard maps for this location. Ask the community about its emergency plan, its generator and where residents would go in an evacuation.
- Flood zone
- FEMA has a flood map for this community (effective August 16, 1995), but it is not in FEMA's digital flood map data, so the zone at this address could not be read. FEMA's Map Service Center has the map. (FEMA flood map)
- FEMA National Risk Index
- Overall: relatively low. By hazard: hurricane relatively low, inland flooding relatively moderate, wildfire very low, tornado relatively moderate, heat wave relatively low, earthquake relatively low. These are FEMA’s ratings for the census tract, compared with tracts nationwide. (FEMA, December 2025)
A flood zone describes the map at this point, not the building's elevation. In an emergency, follow the local emergency management agency.

How Lilisity works. The only scores or rankings Lilisity publishes are the Top Communities list and the Excellence Awards, both built from phone-verified resident and family interviews. Communities can pay Lilisity a flat monthly fee to manage their own listing: photos, prices, contact details, and receiving the inquiries families choose to send them. The fee is the same no matter how many families contact them or move in. Senior Living Alliance, which runs Lilisity, offers the same listing to its member communities as part of their membership; members pay SLA for its resident and family interview program. No community pays Lilisity per inquiry, per referral or per move-in. Payment never changes a testimonial, a rating, or the order of search results. The "Nearby Senior Living Alliance communities" box shows member communities only. How we verify testimonials · How we are paid
