It’s important to note that assisted living rates in Dover and the surrounding suburbs can vary widely based on factors such as location, the level of care needed, apartment size and the types of amenities offered at each community.
Dover seniors who are unable to afford the cost of assisted living can apply for assistance from the Delaware Diamond State Health Plan Plus, which is a managed long-term care program operated by the state's Medicaid system.
The state also offers an optional state supplement, which is provided to senior citizens who are beneficiaries of the federal Supplemental Security Income payment and can be used to pay for room-and-board costs.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on ourAssisted Living in Delaware page.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:
