Missionary Sisters of St. Benedict

Overview of Missionary Sisters of St. Benedict

Walk Score 91: the Huntington neighborhood around 350 Cuba Hill Road is a walker’s paradise where most daily errands are accessible on foot. The community at this address is St. Joseph’s Home for the Aged, a 60-bed adult home operated by the Missionary Sisters of St. Benedict, an international Benedictine congregation.

The Missionary Sisters established their Huntington presence in 1940, and the facility sits on 22 acres of Long Island’s north shore. It holds a New York enhanced assisted living certification, which authorizes a higher level of nursing and personal care than standard adult home licensure permits.

ADL assistance is provided by Sisters and trained resident care aides, with a case manager supporting residents throughout their stay. Meals are dietitian-planned, and on some occasions dining takes place in a patio gazebo overlooking the gardens the Sisters maintain on campus.

A chapel, religious services, and a volunteer program are in place. Families are asked to complete a pre-admission packet before a tour is scheduled. New York’s Department of Health, Office of Aging and Long Term Care has noted themes around care planning and documentation through the inspection process.

St. Joseph’s Home for the Aged has operated under the Missionary Sisters since 1940 in Huntington, with enhanced assisted living certification and a 22-acre north-shore campus. The religious identity of the operating congregation runs through the daily structure here, from the chapel and garden dining to the ADL care provided by the Sisters themselves.
