The Bronx

Nursing homes in the Bronx have faced serious allegations in recent years. In 2024, Bronx-based nursing home operator Center Health Care agreed to pay $45 million to settle a lawsuit filed by the New York Attorney General, who accused the company of pocketing government funds while understaffing its facilities, leading to severe neglect, illness, and even death. These issues highlight a troubling pattern of nursing home misconduct in the area. If you or your loved one have suffered abuse in a Bronx nursing home, we can help you take decisive legal action.

Brooklyn

Across New York, there were over 55,000 nursing home abuse complaints filed between February 2021 and January 2025, and in Brooklyn, the situation is no different. Just 9 of the 40 nursing facilities in the borough received an overall quality rating of 4 or 5 stars from the New York State Department of Health. With these concerning statistics, it’s clear that many nursing homes in Brooklyn are failing to provide the care their residents deserve. When abuse, neglect, or poor care leads to injury or even death in a Brooklyn nursing home, Dalli & Marino is committed to holding these facilities accountable and helping families seek justice for their loved ones.

Manhattan

Despite being home to some of the country’s most renowned healthcare facilities, Manhattan struggles with issues of nursing home neglect and abuse. A 2024 investigation revealed that 73% of nursing homes in New York City failed to meet the federal inspection timeline. Even highly-rated facilities, such as one West Village rehabilitation center, have faced serious complaints, including incidents of improper care and lapses in attention to basic needs. This lack of oversight highlights the importance of families staying vigilant for signs of abuse and neglect. Dalli & Marino helps hold negligent Manhattan nursing homes accountable when their actions or inactions lead to serious injuries or even death.

Queens

Access to quality elder care remains a growing concern in Queens. In 2024, for instance, the planned closure of the Neponsit Adult Day Health Care Center drew backlash from families, who say it offered critical medical and emotional support that helped seniors avoid nursing home placement. As local programs like Neponsit disappear, families may be forced to rely more heavily on long-term care facilities—where they are often at greater risk of abuse and neglect. At Dalli & Marino, we understand the strain this puts on Queens families and are committed to holding facilities accountable when they fail to provide proper care.

Staten Island

Staten Island already faces a limited number of nursing home options, and the growing crisis in long-term care across New York State is making matters even more challenging for families. Facility closures statewide are making it increasingly difficult to find quality elder care. The situation is worsened by low Medicaid reimbursement rates, which lead to lower pay for nursing home staff and, in turn, more frequent staffing shortages. Many homes are reportedly losing an average of $56 per resident, per day. Unfortunately, when facilities are stretched thin, neglect and abuse can become more prevalent. If your loved one has suffered due to poor care in a Staten Island nursing home, Dalli & Marino is here to help you hold them accountable.

Nassau County

Nursing home neglect in Nassau County has made headlines. In 2022, the New York Attorney General filed a lawsuit against the operators of Cold Spring Hills Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation, accusing them of diverting over $22 million in funds meant for patient care. Residents were left malnourished, dehydrated, and living in unsanitary conditions—with one patient reportedly receiving just one shower in five months. These horrifying details highlight the urgent need for accountability in Nassau County facilities. If you or someone you love is the victim of abuse or neglect in a Nassau County nursing home, Dalli & Marino can help.

Suffolk County

Nursing homes in Suffolk County continue to face serious violations, raising concerns about resident care and safety. In 2023, roughly one in four nursing homes on Long Island—many located in Suffolk County—were fined for serious violations, including sexual assault, physical violence, and medication errors. A Newsday investigation revealed a pattern of understaffing and poor oversight across the region, putting patient safety at extreme risk. At Dalli & Marino, we work with victims and their families to hold negligent and abusive Suffolk County nursing homes accountable.

Westchester

Even highly rated nursing homes in Westchester have come under fire for appalling neglect. In 2023, the local Martine Center for Rehabilitation and Nursing was just one of several New York-based care facilities where residents suffered from malnutrition, untreated pressures, and other harm due to a misuse of more than $83 million in taxpayer funds. These conditions show how financial misconduct can directly threaten patient safety. At Dalli & Marino, we fight to hold Westchester facilities accountable when profits come before people.
