Caregivers are available to help residents with daily living tasks such as bathing, dressing and mobility. Seniors benefit from living in a community setting, and they have the option to decorate their living quarters. Many facilities provide amenities such as a landscaped garden, an in-house beauty salon and a library. Assisted living residents in Kissimmee pay around $4,000 every month for their residential care, which is significantly less than the national median.
In this guide, we compare assisted living rates in Kissimmee with other Florida areas and other care options for older adults. We’ve also included pertinent information about Kissimmee and a list of resources for seniors.
