Review of Sonoma Post Acute
The facility is older, but kept fairly clean. 99% of the CNAs, RNs, therapists, and helpers are nice and want to help the patient. Food was for calories, not necessarily nutrition, decent. The main...

Review of Broadway Villa Post Acute
I was at Broadway Villa Post Acute for rehab. I thought it was better than the other place, but still very noisy. The room was about the same size. It had a patio that you could go out and sit on....

Review of Sonoma Post Acute
I was at Sonoma Post Acute recuperating from a hip surgery. Nothing was really good. It was probably the poorest of any of the places I've stayed at. There was a lack of help. The toilet was always...

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Sonoma
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.
The Cost of Other Types of Senior Care
For semi-private and private rooms, Sonoma’s nursing homes charge an average monthly rate of $10,646 and $13,992, respectively. In-home care and home health care cost over $4,200 less than nursing home care for home-delivered services. The former aids seniors with daily activities, and the latter provides intermittent care from medically trained staff and rehabilitation professionals. Assisted living is $4,346 less costly than nursing facility care and includes help with everyday activities in a residential setting. Adult day health care supports seniors in a community location during working hours and, at $2,275 per month, is the lowest-priced care solution in Sonoma.
