The 10 Best Nursing Homes in Manteca, CA for 2024

Manteca, CA, is home to 85,792 residents, and 13.4% of them are 65 and older. Those older adults may enjoy Manteca’s sunny summers and snow-free winters. Within the city, Doctors Hospital of Manteca has a 24/7 emergency department, which is potentially comforting for seniors with health concerns. Two other nearby medical facilities are the Kaiser Permanente Manteca Medical Center and the San Joaquin General Hospital.

Some seniors’ health situations don’t require hospitalization but do call for frequent medical care. Nursing homes often are a good fit, as they typically provide around-the-clock skilled nursing plus other services such as rehabilitative therapies. Nursing homes are relatively expensive because of their advanced services, though. Per Genworth’s 2021 Cost of Care Survey, a semiprivate nursing home room in Manteca costs a median of $10,015 per month, which is $2,107 above the national average. More affordable alternatives include assisted living, which offers companionship and daily help with tasks, and home health care, which gives seniors personal care and light medical services in their residences.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Manteca, CA

Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.

  • Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
  • Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including skilled nursing care.

If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
