With approximately 11,560 residents over the age of 65, seniors account for 15.8% of the total population of Redlands. This southern California city has a pleasant year round climate, below-average cost of living and a violent crime rate that’s lower than the national figure. In addition to Redlands Community Hospital, which is rated as high performing in several adult procedures, seniors have a wide range of health care options in nearby San Bernardino and Riverside. For nursing home care, the city’s seniors pay slightly above the national median, but at $8,060 a month, it’s quite affordable compared to the statewide average. 

Physicians and nurses remain on-site 24/7 at the city’s nursing homes where seniors may receive medication management, wound care, injections, diabetes management and various rehabilitative services on top of personal care assistance. If constant medical supervision is unnecessary, assisted living or home care may allow seniors to live with more independence and trim down their health care expenses. 

An overview of the cost of senior care is included in this guide as well as a list of programs and services that may help seniors pay for nursing home care or delay it by providing services in their homes.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Redlands, 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 in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
  • Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible 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 any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
