Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Amsterdam

For those seniors in Amsterdam that need financial assistance paying for their assisted living facility, the state of New York offers an Assisted Living Program. For those who qualify, the program will pay for a senior’s assisted living facilities as long as a high level of care is required for participants, equivalent to what one would receive in a nursing home. Most people in this program are on Medicaid, though a small percentage of people who aren’t still may receive financial assistance.

Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in New York page.
