Atria Bay Shore is a senior living community at 53 Ocean Avenue in Bay Shore, New York, set in a restored 19th-century mansion in the town's historic district, with canal views and an enclosed arboretum. It offers three ways to live: independent living, supportive living, and memory care, so residents can stay in the same community as their needs change.
Independent living suits older adults who want freedom from daily tasks while staying active, with easy access to third-party providers for services such as physical and occupational therapy. Supportive living adds personal care in a social setting: help with bathing, grooming, dressing, incontinence care, and getting out of a bed or chair, medication administration and supervision, escorts to and from meals and events, telehealth access, and discreet support available 24 hours a day. A licensed on-site nurse assesses every resident so care and staffing match each person's needs. For people living with Alzheimer's or another form of dementia, the Life Guidance memory care neighborhood provides person-centered care with 24-hour support from specially trained staff in a secure setting. Short-term respite stays are also available, for example after an injury or when a family caregiver travels.
Daily life at Atria Bay Shore includes chef-prepared meals, housekeeping, scheduled local transportation, apartment maintenance, and a full calendar of daily events. The community has a salon and barber shop and a fitness and physical therapy center, and apartments are private, with generous closet space and modern kitchenettes. The monthly rental rate covers the apartment, 24/7 staff support, meals, housekeeping, transportation, utilities, events, and maintenance; care services are priced separately based on the nurse's assessment, and there are no buy-in fees. Residents may bring their pets, with fees and vaccination requirements.
Under New York law the community does not provide skilled nursing care, but a third-party provider can be hired to deliver such services on site. Families can schedule a tour by calling (631) 206-1200.

How much does assisted living cost?
The national median cost of assisted living is $6,200 a month (CareScout Cost of Care Survey, 2025). Costs in New York can be higher or lower. The price goes up when a person needs more help with daily tasks. See our guide to assisted living costs and who pays for the full picture.
Does Medicare pay for assisted living?
No. Medicare does not pay for the rent or the day-to-day help in assisted living. That help is called custodial care, and Medicare does not cover it. Medicare still pays for your medical care while you live there, like doctor visits, hospital care, and home health visits.
What is the difference between assisted living and a nursing home?
Assisted living gives a room, meals, and help with daily tasks like bathing and dressing. Staff are on hand day and night, but it does not give round-the-clock nursing care. A nursing home gives skilled nursing care and rehab around the clock. People who need help but not daily medical care often pick assisted living. People who need daily medical care often need a nursing home.
Who else pays for assisted living besides Medicare?
Most people pay out of pocket. Medicaid pays for care services in assisted living in many states through waiver programs, but it does not pay the rent. A VA pension called Aid and Attendance can add money each month for veterans who need help with daily tasks. Long-term care insurance can pay for part of the cost.
