West Jordan is a rapidly growing suburb of Salt Lake City with approximately 117,000 residents. While only 8% of the population is aged 65 and over, the city’s seasonal climate, health care amenities and modest crime rate make it an attractive option for older adults seeking long-term care in north-central Utah. It’s home to one hospital, along with several assisted living facilities, further promoting a comfortable environment for seniors.
Assisted living facilities provide housing, meals and personal care for older adults who don’t have advanced medical needs but benefit from help with daily activities. Residents have individualized care plans based on their unique needs, and they can participate in social and recreational activities throughout the week. Many facilities have apartment-style units and multiple dining venues for added comfort and convenience, and some accommodate pets. On average, local facilities charge $3,310 per month for care, which is well below state and national respective norms of $3,500 and $4,500.
This guide highlights the rules all assisted living facilities in West Jordan follow and provides details on how these facilities are licensed. It also lists some resources that support current and prospective assisted living residents.
