Over time, those needs can grow. A parent who once walked to the dining room alone may later need help getting up from a chair or moving from a bed to a wheelchair. In New York, enhanced assisted living exists for this stage of life.<\/p><p>Enhanced assisted living lets residents stay in the same assisted living community as their care needs increase, with added support from licensed nurses and trained team members.

Every assisted living residence must provide housing, 24-hour on-site monitoring, personal care, daily meals and snacks, case management, and an individualized service plan for each resident. Beyond that basic license, a residence can earn two additional certifications: one for enhanced assisted living and one for specialized dementia care.<\/p><p>An enhanced assisted living residence holds its enhanced certification in addition to its assisted living license. Under <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nysenate.gov\/legislation\/laws\/PBH\/4655*2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">New York Public Health Law Section 4655<\/a>, a community must submit a plan to the Department of Health explaining how it will meet residents\u2019 added needs, and it cannot operate as enhanced assisted living until the department gives written approval. The certification can cover an entire community or a set number of beds. An enhanced assisted living residence may hire its own care team or contract with a state-approved home care agency to provide services.<\/p><h2>Enhanced Assisted Living vs. Assisted Living<\/h2><p>A basic assisted living residence serves residents who are medically stable, who can walk or use a wheelchair on their own or with occasional help, and who can move themselves from a bed or chair. Enhanced assisted living picks up where those limits end. According to the Department of Health, residents in an enhanced assisted living residence may need:<\/p><ul><li>Help getting up from a chair<\/li><li>Another person\u2019s assistance to walk or use stairs<\/li><li>Help with medical equipment such as wheelchairs and hospital beds<\/li><li>Help managing chronic urinary or bowel incontinence<\/li><li>Nursing care such as vital sign checks, eye drops, injections, catheter care, colostomy care, and wound care<\/li><\/ul><p>Basic assisted living cannot provide this level of help, which is why enhanced certification matters for families planning.<\/p><h2>Aging in Place in Assisted Living<\/h2><p>The Department of Health describes aging in place as accommodating a resident\u2019s changing needs and preferences so they can remain in the residence as long as possible. Enhanced assisted living is the certification that makes aging in place in assisted living possible in New York. Without it, a resident whose needs grow beyond basic assisted living would need to move.<\/p><p>The department offers an example. A person with severe arthritis who needs help with meals and walking may live in enhanced assisted living. If that person later uses a wheelchair full-time and needs help transferring, they can stay.<\/p><p>A person can enter enhanced assisted living directly from a private residence or another setting, or transition into it after living in basic assisted living. When aging in place is the plan, the department recommends asking how many beds are certified as enhanced and how future needs will be met.<\/p><h2>What Happens if 24-Hour Skilled Care Becomes Necessary<\/h2><p>An enhanced assisted living residence cannot admit someone who already needs 24-hour skilled nursing or medical care. If a current resident develops that need, state guidance allows the resident to remain only when four conditions are met:<\/p><ol><li>The resident privately hires appropriate 24-hour nursing and medical care<\/li><li>The resident\u2019s physician and home care agency agree the care can be delivered appropriately in the residence<\/li><li>The residence agrees to provide or arrange services and coordinate care<\/li><li>The resident agrees with the plan<\/li><\/ol><h2>Enhanced Assisted Living at Evergreen Place in Brockport, NY<\/h2><p>The New York State Department of Health has certified Evergreen Place as an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/evergreen-place\/assisted-living\/\">enhanced assisted living<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/evergreen-place\/memory-care\/\">memory care<\/a> residence. Its operating certificate carries the name Evergreen Place, Enhanced Assisted Living and Memory Care, and its <a href=\"https:\/\/healthweb-back.health.ny.gov\/facilities\/adult_care\/residence_quality\/docs\/370-S-849_SUM.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">consumer summary<\/a> on file with the state lists services that support residents as their needs change, including:<\/p><ul><li>Three meals daily, plus snacks and beverages throughout the day<\/li><li>Medication assistance and management<\/li><li>Help with dressing, bathing, and grooming<\/li><li>Transfer assistance and escorts for walking<\/li><li>Bathroom and incontinence management<\/li><li>Ostomy and colostomy care<\/li><li>Oxygen assistance<\/li><li>Case management, weekly housekeeping and laundry, and scheduled transportation<\/li><\/ul><p>Residents also have 24-hour support and access to a licensed nurse. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/evergreen-place\/apartments\/\">Assisted living apartments <\/a>include studio and one-bedroom floor plans, and small pets are welcome.<\/p><p>Assisted living care at Evergreen Place follows a tiered level-of-care model. A clinical screening determines each resident\u2019s starting level, and we review each individualized service plan as needs change and at least every six months, as New York requires.<\/p><h2>Memory Care in the Same Community<\/h2><p>Some residents eventually need a secured setting for Alzheimer\u2019s or other forms of dementia. Evergreen Place offers <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pegasusseniorliving.com\/evergreen-place\/memory-care\/\">memory care<\/a> through the Connections memory care program, an evidence-based, individualized approach built on the Connect, Move, and Learn framework. Therapeutic engagement supports neuroplasticity and gives each resident a daily rhythm based on personal history and interests. With memory care in the same community, residents can change care levels while staying close to familiar faces and team members who already know them.<\/p><h2>When Assisted Living Isn\u2019t Enough: Signs to Watch For<\/h2><p>Families often notice changes before a doctor names them. Signs that a parent may benefit from an enhanced level of care include:<\/p><ul><li>Needing help to stand up from a chair or bed<\/li><li>Unsteady walking or difficulty with stairs<\/li><li>A recent fall, especially one that required help to get up<\/li><li>New reliance on a wheelchair, walker, or hospital bed<\/li><li>Ongoing incontinence that is hard to manage<\/li><li>Wound care, injections, or other nursing tasks added to a care plan<\/li><\/ul><p>A conversation with the parent\u2019s physician is a helpful first step. New York requires a physical exam, including a medical and functional assessment, within 30 days before admission to any assisted living residence.<\/p><h2>Questions to Ask When Comparing Enhanced Assisted Living Residences<\/h2><p>The Department of Health encourages families to visit several residences and bring a prepared list of questions. Useful ones for enhanced assisted living include:<\/p><ul><li>How many beds are certified for enhanced assisted living, and how are they assigned?<\/li><li>What conditions would require a resident to move out?<\/li><li>Would a change in health require a change in apartment?<\/li><li>How are level-of-care charges calculated, and how often are they reviewed?<\/li><li>How is the individualized service plan updated as needs change?<\/li><li>Is memory care available on-site if dementia symptoms develop?<\/li><\/ul><h2>Frequently Asked Questions<\/h2>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-028928b uael-faq-box-layout-yes align-at-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-uael-faq\" data-id=\"028928b\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"uael-faq.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<div id='uael-faq-wrapper-265' class=\"uael-faq-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-faq-container uael-faq-layout-accordion\" data-layout=\"accordion\" >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div id=\"uael-accordion-f004e9a\" class=\"uael-faq-accordion\" role=\"tablist\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class= \"uael-accordion-title\" aria-expanded=\"false\" role=\"tab\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"uael-accordion-icon uael-accordion-icon-left\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"uael-accordion-icon-closed\"><i class=\"fas fa-angle-right\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"uael-accordion-icon-opened\"><i class=\"fas fa-angle-up\"><\/i><\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"uael-question-f004e9a uael-question-span\" tabindex=\"0\" id=\"uael-faq-1-6ae946a340cc8\">What is the difference between enhanced assisted living and a nursing home?<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"uael-accordion-content\" role=\"tabpanel\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span><p>Enhanced assisted living provides personal care, nursing support, and mobility assistance in an assisted living setting with private apartments, meals, and social activities.
