To help seniors and families make informed decisions, it’s important to understand the costs of different senior care options and the services they provide. Memory care, which is specifically designed for those with dementia, costs $5,606 per month. For 8.8% more, in-home care services support seniors with regular household activities in their own homes, and for a similar price, home health care offers more extensive medical services.
Adult day care centers that operate during working hours are the most affordable, at more than half the cost of memory care. Assisted living facilities balance independence with access to 24/7 assistance for $1,121 less, while nursing home facilities offer comprehensive medical services, with a semi-private room costing as much as $10,190.
