Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Delaware
Delaware seniors eligible for Medicaid may receive help covering the costs of select services in a participating residential care facility through Ohio's Assisted Living Waiver Program. The program pays for services, such as personal care, medication assistance, housekeeping and skilled nursing, but does not cover room and board costs.
Learn more about these programs, plus who’s eligible, on our Assisted Living in Ohio page.

- Veterans Benefits
- Life Insurance Policy
- Long-Term Care Insurance
- Reverse Mortgage
For more information about different ways to finance assisted living, visit our Assisted Living in Ohio page.
