Overview of Sunrise at Sheepshead Bay

Sunrise at Sheepshead Bay occupies a mid-rise on Emmons Avenue in Brooklyn’s Sheepshead Bay neighborhood, a Sunrise-branded community with 189 beds across studio, one-, and two-bedroom layouts. The surrounding area is legitimately walkable; a Walk Score of 88 means most errands are reachable on foot, which matters more than it might in a suburban setting when residents, families, and staff are all coming and going. The starting price is $6,323 per month.

Care here spans three levels: assisted living, memory care, and respite stays. Licensed nurses and CNAs are on-site around the clock, and the services list includes rehabilitation, short-term rehab, and Dignity Home Care alongside the standard residential tracks. Memory care is a distinct offering, not folded into general assisted living.

The amenity footprint is substantial for an urban mid-rise. Outdoor spaces, a bistro, a private dining room, chef-crafted meals, fitness and arts programming, local excursions, and scheduled transportation are all confirmed. Each suite includes an emergency response system. Sunrise CareConnect handles healthcare coordination, and a family engagement app keeps relatives in the loop without requiring a trip to Brooklyn.

For older adults who want to stay embedded in a dense, walkable urban neighborhood while moving into assisted living or memory care, this community covers the range of what that transition typically requires, with short-term options available for families who aren’t yet ready for a permanent placement.

Starting Price $6,323/Month

Frequently Asked Questions about Assisted Living in Brooklyn, NY

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

Assisted living in New York 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?

Assisted living in New York 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 Medicaid cover assisted living?

New York Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for assisted living, but most states (including New York) 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 19 assisted living facilities in Brooklyn, NY. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right assisted living facility in Brooklyn, NY?

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 Brooklyn, NY, 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 Brooklyn, NY?

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.
