Home care covers personal care, such as bathing and grooming, and includes household tasks, such as light housekeeping and preparing meals. It doesn’t involve medical services generally provided by registered nurses or therapists, which comes with home health services. Despite this major difference, both types of in-home care cost the same in Tulsa at $4,767 monthly. Seniors seeking care in a residential setting pay less for assisted living, averaging $3,855, but more for nursing home care, at $5,323 for a semiprivate room. Adult day health care is significantly less than home care at only $1,517, but it provides limited services outside the home.

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.
Tulsa has several nonprofit or government entities offering various programs to help seniors who choose to age in place remain living independently in their homes safely instead of moving to a residential care home. Services run the gamut from financial assistance through property taxes and energy efficiency to at-home services, such as meal deliveries and respite care.

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.
