New York Connects: Westchester Choices for Long-Term Care is a
new state program that lets callers get information about long-term care for seniors and disabled adults and children by dialing one toll-free number.
That number is (877) 914-4040, and help is provided in all languages. TTY is available for the hearing-impaired. The state-funded program streamlines the calls people must make to learn about such care and helps avoid the frustrations that process can cause. The line is open 24 hours a day, seven days a week. All calls are confidential.
