The coastal city of New Rochelle has a population of nearly 79,000 people, with close to 18% ages 65 and older. Seniors looking for a place to retire have access to multiple medical facilities in the area, including the Montefiore Mount Vernon Hospital, Jack D. Weiler Hospital and the White Plains Hospital. New Rochelle is also 30 minutes from downtown New York City, which has NYC Health and New York-Presbyterian Hospital.
Seniors who require 24-hour skilled nursing care also have access to multiple nursing homes in New Rochelle. A private room in these communities costs around $11,771 per month. These communities are for those who don’t require hospitalization but need more care than they can receive at home. Nursing homes provide increased supervision, health monitoring and therapies not typically provided for those remaining in their homes. Seniors who don’t require this level of care may opt for an assisted living community or choose home health care, which tends to cost much less.
This guide covers the different types of long-term care in detail as well as the differences in costs. It also provides a list of resources that aid seniors in the New Rochelle area.

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.
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.
