What are the steps for admission to a long or short term care facility?
Prior to an applicant's consideration for admission, a New York State assessment form (PRI and Screen) must be completed by a registered nurse. These forms are reviewed by our admissions team to determine eligibility for care. Our finance staff then helps determine the applicant's payment source(s).
