Read More »On Long Island and in Queens there are over 90 Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Independent Living facilities. These facilities, more commonly known as Communities, offer specific levels of care supporting needs like help with showering and dressing. In addition, there are factors like location, cost, environment, food, activities, future care needs, and other factors to consider. This is a decision that will have a long-term impact on the lives of multiple generations. Get some professional input!
See What Makes Mike DifferentMike is proud to operate the Assisted Living Locators eldercare advisory service on Long Island and for Queens. He lives on Long Island (in Glen Cove) and is very familiar with our area’s 90+ Assisted Living, Memory Care, and Independent Living communities. He understands the strengths and challenges of each community. He takes the time to genuinely get to know every senior and family he is privileged to serve. Here is what one family had to say about their experience with Mike:
Mike uses his background in homecare to help families quickly and efficiently find the right senior living options for their needs. He has had to help his own parents find solutions and uses that experience to better serve his families as well!
Exploring senior living options on Long Island can be overwhelming and time-consuming. The monthly price for Assisted Living, Independent Living or Dementia Care on Long Island can range from $3,000 to over $10,000, and the communities offer many different services and environments.
And most families are searching for senior living at a time when the senior and family is stressed – after the senior falls, for example, and goes through stays in both the hospital and a rehabilitation facility. We are the local experts on all 90+ communities, including Assisted Living Locators Long Island. We work closely with you and your family to find the right match for your loved one. Why contact just one community when you can work with an unbiased expert who knows all the local communities?
Senior Placement is better approached as Senior Planning.
Mike’s planning horizon for seniors and the care they will need AFTER placement extends out for at least 24 months. Seniors typically are living with several medical and cognitive complaints, and over time for most seniors these underlying conditions will demand a higher level of care. While these changes are not certain, based on the underlying health conditions of the senior there is a reasonable level of predictability for future care needs. Some Senior Communities can add services as the senior ages, while others are limited by their licensure and corporate policy and cannot adjust. For example, some communities are not permitted to even push seniors in wheelchairs!
While this lower level of care would be fine for some seniors, for others the need for a wheelchair or other advanced service is largely predictable. What might be a bright and beautiful new home for a senior in Month One can become a place that just cannot deliver the required care in Months six, twelve, or twenty four. And in many cases these increasing needs would have been generally predictable. In order to facilitate a more stable, longer term placement, Mike created 24 Month Planning Process for Senior Placement.
The 24 Month Planning Process for senior placement significantly increases the likelihood that the Senior Community chosen today will also be able to care for your loved one 24 months in the future. Moving a senior from one facility to another is very disruptive to the senior from a cognitive, social, and physical point of view, and the 24 Month Planning Process created and implemented by Assisted Living Locators can help minimize and often eliminate these moves. As much as possible, we want the senior to Age in Place. In fact, many of Mike’s placements have continued in the same facility for several years – even though the conditions affecting the senior have worsened considerably.
Mike's work in placement is different from other individuals and companies doing this work. Mike's background is as an executive in business, and in business it's all about planning. He developed the 24 Month Planning Process specifically to help seniors “Age In Place”.
