Care Resources: compare care types and browse counties
Westchester County care choices can span a residential community in Rye, home-health visits and daily aide support in the person’s own home. These services meet different needs and may have separate contracts and payment arrangements. Use this guide to identify the care category before comparing providers.

These are selected research starting points, not a complete directory, ranking or endorsement. Listings and provider website descriptions were reviewed November 1, 2026. Confirm current services, licensing, availability, costs and payment policies directly; inclusion does not establish Medicaid acceptance or suitability for an individual.
Distinguish campus services from care delivered at home
A provider may offer assisted living, nursing and home-care services under related names. Ask which entity will provide the service, where care will occur and which agreement you are being asked to sign. Consider family travel, access to clinicians and what happens if the person needs more help than the initial plan provides.
Assisted Living and Memory Care
- The Osborn — Grandview Assisted Living — Rye. Assisted living with enhanced and memory-care program information. Ask which program fits the person’s assessed needs.
Nursing Homes, Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation
- The Osborn — Skilled Nursing — Rye. Skilled nursing, long-term care and rehabilitation information. Review this service separately from the campus’s assisted-living options.
Home Health and Personal Care Companies
- Osborn Home Care — Westchester service area. Help with daily activities such as bathing, dressing and meals. Ask about schedules, care supervision and backup coverage.
- VNS Westchester — White Plains; Westchester service area. Home-health services, with a separate contact for affiliated home-health-aide services. Confirm the clinical referral and which service is being arranged.
County Support and Caregiver Resources
Westchester County Senior Programs and Services — County resources for older residents and caregivers, including information about community support. You can also search the Aging Life Care Association directory for care-management professionals; ask about credentials, fees and referral relationships.
Check the Provider and Ask for Written Answers
Check New York’s adult-care facility profiles for Westchester County and Medicare Care Compare for the appropriate provider type. Match the facility’s legal name and address; do not apply a nursing-home rating to an assisted-living residence.
- Care fit: Can the provider handle the assessed mobility, medication, dementia and overnight needs?
- Staffing and continuity: Who supervises care, responds after hours and covers absences?
- Total cost: Request base charges, additional care fees, deposits and termination terms.
- Payment changes: Ask what happens if care needs increase or private funds run low. Obtain the relevant policy in writing.
Care Costs, Medicaid and Authority to Act
Care selection and benefits planning are related but separate decisions. Medicare generally does not cover ongoing custodial long-term care; limited skilled or home-health coverage has its own conditions. A provider’s website does not determine eligibility or insurance authorization.
For the financial and decision-making questions alongside care, explore our New York Medicaid planning guidance, New York powers of attorney and health care proxies, and Westchester County elder-law services. Explain where the person lives and receives care; New Jersey rules should not be assumed to govern a New York matter.
Contact Willis Law Group to discuss the legal and financial questions in your care plan. Bring existing documents, the proposed care arrangement and any agency notices or deadlines. Ask our team how to provide confidential records. Clinical and placement decisions should involve the person, family and appropriate health professionals.
