Residential care homes in Lynbrook may appeal to seniors who value smaller, more close-knit communities and many opportunities for socialization. Lynbrook care homes typically take in fewer residents, meaning older adults know each resident in the home and develop strong friendships.
Older-adult care homes vary more than other options for senior living in Lynbrook, so families can choose from a wide range of prices, amenities, and services. A Place for Mom will work with you to understand the cost of care homes. From there, we’ll help you find the right fit, whether you’re staying on a budget or searching for luxury retirement communities.

Residential Care Home
Things are going well since my aunt moved into this community. She is still trying to adjust to all of the changes but everyone has been very friendly and accommodating. We are very happy with everything so far.
When my father turned 83 years old he was diagnosed with advanced dementia amid his other illnesses, and Amity Springs has been taking great care of him during his time at their community. Highly recommended.
My step father has been at Stewart Family Type Home for about two months now, and it has been a great experience so far. The place is clean, the food is heathy, and the staff has been so willing to accommodate his needs. He can be a little tough, but they are very helpful and caring. They allowed him to bring his dog with him, even though they don’t typically allow pets. I love that they invite him into the kitchen occasionally because he loves to cook so much. They really do care about involving the residents. I would definitely recommend Stewart to others. It has been great for us so far.

Residential care homes are houses in residential neighborhoods that are equipped, adapted, and staffed to care for a small number of residents, usually between two and 10. Like assisted living communities, staff at care homes typically help residents with activities of daily living, including bathing, dressing, and medication management. Although residential care homes vary significantly depending on the community, services usually include:
Residential care homes — sometimes called care homes, board and care homes, group homes, or personal care homes — are often houses in residential neighborhoods that are adapted, equipped, and staffed to care for a small number of residents, usually 10 or less. Similar to assisted living but in a smaller, more residential setting, these homes provide supervision, organized events, and assistance with activities of daily living (ADLs). This means care homes can help with everyday routines but typically do not provide 24-hour skilled nursing assistance.
In the state of New York, the median monthly cost for a room in a care home is about $3,000. However, the cost of living in a care home depends largely on location. Since the homes are private residences, costs are tied to real estate values and therefore may vary greatly.

Lynbrook is a fairly small town located within Nassau County on Long Island, and is considered a suburb of New York City. The town is far enough removed to have its own pace and personality, and close enough to the city to provide convenient access to the many amenities of a large metropolitan area. Lynbrook is very close to the Atlantic Ocean and the surrounding area has an appropriately small town feel. Nassau County overall has a large population – about 1.4 million people – but this is spread out among very many individual towns. Politics are fairly moderate and can lean in either direction, but more often slightly left of center in larger elections. The economy of the surrounding area is mostly based in scientific research and engineering, information technology, and in line with much of the region’s history, fishing. Members of the LGBTQ+ community can expect tolerance in much of the surrounding area.

Lynbrook itself may be a fairly small town, but the surrounding area has plenty of activity. With downtown Manhattan being less than an hour away, you have pretty much every option at your fingertips. Closer to home, however, are plenty of things to do as well. During the summer months, the beach is a major attraction. Long Island has over 100 miles of ocean beach property, and the drive from Lynbrook to the south shore and the ocean is about a half hour or less. Directly south of town is one of the so-called “barrier islands,” home to Atlantic Beach, Jones Beach, and Lido Beach, a group of very popular summertime destinations. Jones Beach is also the site of a large-scale outdoor concert venue, hosting plenty of big name acts every year. Despite its northeastern location, Long Island’s shallow water gets remarkably warm, and the summer weather is reliably hot and sunny.
If you’ve had your fill of the beaches, Nassau County has its fair share of beautiful parks as well. Nearby Hempstead Lake State Park is a 737-acre expanse which includes the county’s largest freshwater lake. The park consists of hiking and bike paths, several fish ponds, shaded picnic areas, and more. In the winter months Hempstead Lake Park even offers ice skating and ice fishing! A short drive away in the town of Oyster Bay on Long Island’s “Gold Coast,” you can find the Planting Fields Arboretum, a world-renowned arboretum and state park which covers over 400 acres and features the historic Coe Hall mansion and museum. Planting Fields also hosts an annual summer concert series, often focusing on jazz. History buffs should take note that a short distance away is Sagamore Hill, the long-term home of former president Theodore Roosevelt, and the “Summer White House” during his time in office. Sagamore Hill now serves as a public museum dedicated to Roosevelt’s life. Remember, if you’re longing for the excitement of the big city, New York is a short train ride away.
Transportation
