Home care and home health care both cost $5,339 on average per month, but the latter option may cost more based on the actual health aide services to be provided. Assisted living is more expensive by about $600, but covers monthly room and board. Nursing home care is more than double the cost of home care due to the inclusion of 24-hour skilled health care support, while adult day health care costs less than half as much because of its limited weekday service hours outside the home, often at a community center.

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.
