Overview of Castle Senior Living at Forest Hills

Castle Senior Living at Forest Hills is a 177-bed Enriched Housing Program administrated by Marie Scotti at 108-25 Horace Harding Expressway in Forest Hills, New York, in Queens County. Licensed as an Enriched Housing Program with Assisted Living Program designation for Medicaid-eligible residents, the facility is owned by Midway A.L., LLC. Castle Senior Living operates two confirmed care programs: an Enriched Housing Program and an Assisted Living Program. Memory care operates as a secured floor dedicated to residents with Alzheimer’s disease and related cognitive impairments. A Trial Stay Program allows prospective residents to experience the community before committing to permanent placement.

Health care services are provided by a licensed home care services agency operating on premises under the direction of a registered nurse. The facility provides nine confirmed amenities: 24-hour trained staff, a full-time registered nurse, a full-time physical therapist, a full-time occupational therapist, a health and wellness program, daily scheduled activities, a beauty and barber salon, a theatre, and a specialized 24-hour secured neighborhood for memory care residents. Dining is kosher and restaurant-style with three meals daily and a private dining room available for family meals. The facility accepts Medicaid through its Assisted Living Program designation. Pets are listed as welcome by the facility; however, a separate state-reported field marks them as not permitted. Families should confirm current pet policy directly before placement.

The New York State Department of Health, Office of Aging and Long Term Care, has conducted five inspections on file, all with citations, against a state average of nine with five carrying citations. Twenty-nine total deficiencies have been recorded against a state average of 22. The most recent inspection, a complaint investigation on April 10, 2025, identified no deficiencies. Earlier inspections documented a pattern involving environmental standards, resident protections, disaster and emergency procedures, and resident services. Six complaints are on record at a rate of 3.4 per 100 occupied beds against a state average of 49.9; complaint investigations were unsubstantiated. One enforcement action is on file: Stipulation and Order ACF-21-102, dated November 23, 2021. The inspection trend shows improvement over time, with recent surveys free of deficiencies.

Located 0.67 miles from the emergency department at Long Island Jewish Forest Hills, Castle Senior Living at Forest Hills provides Enriched Housing and Assisted Living services with kosher dining and full-time clinical staffing.

Castle Senior Living at Forest Hills is suited for Medicaid-eligible residents seeking Enriched Housing or Assisted Living with kosher dining and secured memory care in Queens County. Families should ask about the 2021 enforcement action and corrective measures implemented, current pet policies, and the specific services available during Trial Stay placements before commitment.
