The 64-bed community, operated by Amber Court of Westbury II, LLC, carries both assisted living and memory care on its license.

The amenity list is also unusually full for 64 beds. Indoor and outdoor patio spaces, a fitness center, library lounge, cinema and game room, and multiple socializing areas give the building a residential feel that runs deeper than functional. Restaurant-style meals are served with specialized diet options available.
Activities include live entertainment, outings, gardening clubs, cooking classes, Pokeno, and religious services. So there’s a calendar with enough variety that it’s unlikely to feel repetitive week to week.
State inspections fall under the New York Department of Health’s Office of Aging and Long Term Care, with regulatory attention focused on care planning and documentation and dietary and food service.
For families in the Westbury and Nassau County area, Amber Court of Westbury combines memory care capacity, on-site physician access, and a genuinely detailed amenity program in a community small enough to keep staffing ratios tight.

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.
