St Anns Community

920 Cherry Ridge Boulevard, Webster, NY 14580
Overview of St Anns Community

Situated at 920 Cherry Ridge Boulevard in Webster, Monroe County, St. Ann’s Community operates as a 72-bed nonprofit nursing home. The facility serves Medicare rehabilitation patients and longer-term skilled nursing residents, with memory care and respite options available. Current occupancy stands at 97%, well above the state average, signaling consistent demand and stable operations.

The staffing measure that most distinguishes this community is nurse hours: 4 hours 32 minutes per resident per day, approximately 30% higher than New York’s 3-hour 29-minute state average. This ranks the facility 40th among 388 state nursing homes. Direct clinical care at or above this level often reflects stronger oversight capacity and faster response to resident health changes; a meaningful differentiator for families evaluating skilled nursing options.

Regulatory findings, however, paint a more complex story. Across nine state inspections since 2021, the facility accumulated 20 citations, substantially above New York’s average. The September 2025 inspection, the most recent, documented six Level 2 deficiencies spanning feeding assistance, medication labeling, environmental safety, and electrical systems; no actual harm was reported at the time.

Earlier surveys during 2023 and 2024 identified similar recurring patterns in medication management, care planning, and life safety code compliance. While the facility corrected some deficiencies within months, the pattern of recurrence across multiple inspection cycles suggests systemic vulnerabilities in these operational areas.

The complaint record provides some counterbalance: 22 formal complaints over seven years resulted in 47% fewer complaint investigations than the state average, and those investigations yielded unsubstantiated findings. The facility has incurred no federal fines in the past three years. Long-stay resident outcomes, though, underscore care-quality gaps. Functional decline and fall-injury rates both run significantly above state averages, indicating residents either arrive with complex needs or experience functional loss during their stay at higher-than-typical rates.

St. Ann’s Community is suited for families seeking skilled nursing care with above-average staffing levels, particularly for short-stay rehabilitation or residents managing multiple chronic conditions.

Woodland Pond focuses on rehabilitation and respite care, so it’s a practical choice for those recovering from surgery, illness, or hospitalization.

They work together to provide consistent hands-on support and oversight.

State inspections conducted by the New York Department of Health over the past six years found no citations, enforcement actions, or substantiated complaints. The facility’s clean inspection record means it consistently complies with regulatory requirements and pays attention to resident care and operational standards.

Residents’ dining options extend beyond usual nursing home meals. It features gourmet dining, casual bistro selections, and private options.

The facility’s strong clinical staffing, clean regulatory record, and welcoming neighborhood setting make Woodland Pond a great option for families seeking skilled nursing care in the Hudson Valley.

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in New York State

What's the difference between assisted living and memory care in New York State?

Assisted living in New York State supports residents with daily activities (bathing, dressing, medication management) while preserving independence. Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's or dementia, and adds 24/7 secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and structured routines designed to reduce confusion and wandering.

What's the difference between assisted living and a nursing home in New York State?

Assisted living in New York State is a residential model focused on housing, hospitality, and help with daily activities. Nursing homes (skilled nursing facilities) provide 24/7 medical care from licensed nurses for residents with significant health needs, and are regulated more strictly under both state and federal CMS rules.

Does New York State Medicaid cover assisted living?

New York State Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including New York State) offer Home and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waivers that can offset the cost of care services delivered inside a licensed community. Eligibility, waitlists, and covered services vary — check directly with the state Medicaid agency.

What is assisted living?

Assisted living combines private or semi-private apartments with help on activities of daily living (meals, bathing, dressing, medication management) and a social calendar — for residents who need some support but do not need 24/7 medical care.

How many assisted living facilities are listed on this page?

This page features 365 assisted living facilities in New York State. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in New York State?

Start by matching the level of care offered to the resident's current and anticipated needs, then compare licensing status, staff-to-resident ratios, recent inspection results, and pricing. Tour at least two or three communities in New York State, talk to current residents and families, and confirm what is included in the base rate versus billed as add-on services.

What should I look for when visiting assisted living facilities in New York State?

Pay attention to staff interactions with residents, cleanliness and odor, food quality at meal times, the activity calendar, and how questions about pricing and care plans are answered. Ask to see the most recent state inspection report, the move-out / level-of-care-change policy, and a sample monthly bill that lists every fee.
