The 10 Best Nursing Homes in Loma Linda, CA for 2024

Located within San Bernardino County, CA, Loma Linda offers year-round warm weather and convenient access to shops. It also positions seniors to take advantage of Southern California's excellent local and regional health care infrastructure. The city has around 608 primary care physicians and is home to the Loma Linda University Medical Center, an award-winning hospital recognized for its excellent adherence to patient safety.

Nursing homes charge $9,125 per month in Loma Linda, according to the Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey. These residences provide 24-hour skilled nursing and specialized medical services, such as IV therapy and wound care, that typically aren't available through other forms of senior living. As such, they're ideal for seniors who need ongoing medical care to assist with the management of chronic illnesses or recovery from surgeries. Other forms of senior care, such as assisted living or home health care, might be better for people who don't need this type of intensive support.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Loma Linda, CA

Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.

  • Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one's stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those who need long-term care will have to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid:Medicaid covers most of the cost of living expenses in a skilled nursing facility for qualifying seniors. Care and room and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras such as specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility requirements are strict and complex, so not all seniors qualify for Medicaid benefits.
  • Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including skilled nursing care.

If these options aren't available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about local financial assistance programs for seniors.
