Miami ranked sixth among Florida cities for offering the best overall environment for seniors, according to Caring’s 2022 Senior Living Report. Like most of Florida, Miami is a popular retirement destination, so seniors find abundant health services. Baptist Hospital of Miami is one of the most respected medical centers in South Florida, and the University of Miami Hospital is nationally ranked in three specialties. Seniors pay an average of $4,195 per month for home care in Miami, per Genworth’s 2021 Cost of Care Survey— less than the state and national average. Home care includes personal and chore services, while home health care also includes medical services usually provided by a registered nurse or a therapist.

In addition to our in-depth provider listings, we’ve compiled resources to help seniors and their families to access all the tools they need to age in place safely and gracefully.

Adult day health is the lowest-cost senior care option in Miami at $1,517, but this option provides limited care and requires going to a nonresidential care facility during daytime hours. Home care has the second lowest cost among senior care options in Miami, but home health care costs the same as assisted living at $4,385 per month. Assisted living requires moving to a residential facility, as does nursing home care. However, nursing home care is the highest-cost option at $9,019 and offers more extensive skilled nursing care than other options.

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.
