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.

The Consaul Road neighborhood scores 35 on the Walk Score scale, putting it in somewhat walkable territory. A few nearby destinations are reachable on foot, but the majority of errands and outings still require a car or an arranged ride.

Inspections are conducted by New York’s Department of Health and Office of Aging and Long Term Care. State review has historically focused on dietary and food service.

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 376 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.
