Overview of Oneida Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing

Oneida Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing is a nursing home in Utica, NY offering adult day care, memory care, and skilled nursing. Adult day care provides daytime support for people who live elsewhere, while skilled nursing provides licensed nursing care on site around the clock. Short term and long term nursing care are available, and memory care provides a secured setting with supervision for someone living with dementia who needs that structure.

Rehabilitation services and short term rehab support residents receiving therapy during a temporary recovery stay, while individualized rehab plans organize services around each resident’s rehabilitation needs. A doctor is on staff for physician care within the community. Residents can also participate in the RehabStrong™ program. The community has 120 beds.

Medicare, Medicaid, and private pay are accepted. Medicare covers short term skilled care after a hospital stay rather than long term residence, while Medicaid may help when savings do not cover a longer stay. Utica Operations Associates operates the community, and Adam Hovey is the director. A Walk Score of 42 indicates a car dependent setting, so most errands require a car or a ride, which suits residents who rely on arranged transportation for shopping, appointments, and other off site needs.

Contact Oneida Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing

Overview of Sans Souci Rehabilitation and Nursing Center

Memory care, hospice care, palliative care, skilled nursing, nursing home care, and respite care are what Sans Souci Rehabilitation and Nursing Center runs in Yonkers, NY. The combination suits a resident with ongoing medical needs, someone who needs watching, a person in recovery, or a family covering for an absent caregiver.

A licensed nurse is on the floor at every hour, overnight included. Memory care answers a different problem: the person who gets up at three in the morning and walks out of a house nobody is awake in. Hospice moves the goal from cure to comfort, and the address does not change when that happens. Palliative work comes earlier, while treatment is still underway.

Short stays cover a caregiver’s absence, often one adult child taking a turn while another travels. Daily physical, occupational, and speech therapy gives structured work on movement, daily tasks, and communication. Subacute post-operative care picks up after surgery, and outpatient therapy lets someone do the rehabilitation without moving in at all.

Respiratory care, IV therapy, diabetic management, pain management, and bariatric services fill out the clinical list. There are 120 beds; the center takes Medicare, private pay, and Medicaid, and Westchester Park operates it. A Walk Score of 64 lands the streets in the somewhat walkable band, so a resident who gave up the car still gets a few errands done on foot.

Overview of Rosewood on the Sound

Rosewood on the Sound provides assisted living, Adult Day Care, Memory Care, and Respite Care in Bayville, NY.

Rehabilitation services give residents access to therapy within the community, and staffing is available 24 hours a day.

Overview of The Terrace at Woodland

The Terrace at Woodland occupies a stretch of Turin Road in Rome, New York, about 0.6 miles from the city’s center. Operated by Forest Hill Associates, Inc., the 60-bed community in Oneida County carries both memory care and assisted living on its license, giving families the option to move within the same building as care needs shift. The surrounding neighborhood scores a 67 on walkability, meaning some errands are walkable, though a car handles most.

The care structure here is clinically oriented. Licensed nurses and certified nursing assistants staff the building around the clock, and the service list includes rehabilitation and respite care alongside the standard assisted living and memory care offerings. Respite availability is worth noting for families navigating short-term transitions, since it opens the door to a trial stay before any longer-term decision. No dining details, amenity lists, or activity programming appear on the profile, so what can be confirmed about daily life at this facility is largely defined by its care model.

Regulatory oversight falls to the New York Department of Health’s Office of Aging and Long Term Care. State inspections have returned consistent findings in three areas: medication management, care planning and documentation, and resident rights and protections. These themes have surfaced across multiple inspection cycles and give a reasonable read on where the facility’s operational attention has been focused.

For families in Rome and the broader Oneida County area, The Terrace at Woodland represents a mid-size option where memory care and assisted living coexist. The clinical staffing model and on-site rehabilitation access make it best suited to residents who need structured, supervised daily support rather than a setting built around lifestyle amenities.

Frequently Asked Questions about Memory Care in New York

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.

Does New York Medicaid cover memory care?

New York Medicaid does not directly pay room-and-board for memory care, 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 memory care?

Memory care is a specialized form of assisted living for residents living with Alzheimer's disease or other forms of dementia, with secured environments, dementia-trained staff, and routines built to reduce confusion and wandering.

How many memory care communities are listed on this page?

This page features 374 memory care communities in New York. Use the filters and comparison tools above to compare ratings, amenities, and pricing.

How do I choose the right memory care community in New York?

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, 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 memory care communities in New York?

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.
