At the Long Island Alzheimer's and Dementia Center, we are committed to making a positive difference in the lives of those suffering from Alzheimer's disease and related forms of dementia, and their caregivers. We provide world-class services and programs to make an impact — one person, one family, one community at a time.
Unlike other facilities that may focus on one stage of Alzheimer's, we provide innovative services addressing each stage. We want to help you and your loved one rediscover the joys and pleasures of the world. And one of the integral ways we achieve these goals is through our hands-on programming. Each program we offer is uniquely designed to your loved one's abilities.
Long Island Alzheimer's and Dementia Center's Day Programs
All programs are conducted in a structured, safe environment designed to help your loved one with Alzheimer’s disease thrive and find their independence. All our Alzheimer’s disease programs are research based and customized to your loved one’s progression with stage.

Transportation Services
We also offer safe door-to-door transportation to and from our day programs for families in select areas of Nassau county. Each of our two wheelchair-accessible vehicles are driven by LIAD’s dementia-trained drivers, and are accompanied by staff when needed. This ensures we're able to provide the highest level of care and safely meet your loved one's needs. And when caregivers use our transportation services, it allows them to have additional time for taking a much-needed break.
All of our transportation services are offered upon assessment.

Caregiver Relief - You Deserve It
The emotional and physical impact of caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease or other types of dementia resulted in a $10.9 billion in increase caregiver costs. Far too often, caregivers feel as if they struggle to find time for themselves, which only adds to their stress and emotional unrest.
However, Long Island Alzheimer's and Dementia Center's day programs are offered Monday through Saturday from 10AM to 2PM. These programs are designed to provide caregivers with much-needed down time to do whatever they deem necessary. Whether it's reading a book, going shopping, walking around the park, or anything else — it's important for you to be good to yourself because you deserve it.
In addition to our day programs, we also offer door-to-door transportation as well as in-home respite care every other week. Through the Helen and Sydney Jacoff Respite Program, our specialized dementia-trained caregivers will come to your home to provide two hours of in home care every other week to families in Nassau Counties.
Learn more about our different caregiver respite programs and remember to be good to yourself.
