READ MORERanked as one of the best cities in Caring’s 2022 Senior Living report, Glendale, Arizona, is appealing to seniors who love the outdoors by offering 294 sunny days per year. Outdoor enthusiasts can enjoy nearby parks and several golf courses. For seniors who love sports, Glendale is also home to the Arizona Cardinals. The local senior center is a great place for socializing, and older adults can partake in regularly scheduled activities. Public transportation services are available to help seniors safely get around. According to the Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey, older adults pay an average of $5,958 for home care services in this Phoenix suburb.

Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.

Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
