Attleboro is a New England city with about 46,000 residents, nearly 8,000 of whom are aged 65 and over. The city offers affordable health care and access to high-performing hospitals, such as Sturdy Memorial Hospital and The Miriam Hospital in nearby Providence, Rhode Island, making it a good option for older adults managing chronic conditions.
Nursing home care is for older adults who need around-the-clock medical monitoring and extensive personal care services. In these facilities, residents obtain services, such as medication administration, help with eating, bathing and toileting, mobility assistance and disease management. The Genworth 2020 Cost of Care Survey indicates that this level of care is costly in Attleboro, with seniors paying approximately $9,733 per month for services. Older adults who only need personal care services or short-term or intermittent skilled nursing services may save thousands of dollars monthly by opting for in-home care or assisted living.
This guide highlights nursing home rates in Attleboro and how they compare to monthly averages in other cities, as well as other local care types. It also features a table with resources to help seniors obtain the level of care they need.

My wife is currently at Attleboro HealthCare (Golden LivingCenter Attleboro). They have a rehab on the first floor, long-term stay on the second floor, and Alzheimer’s/memory on the third floor. My wife’s currently in the rehab area waiting to get into the long-term stay. I’m very satisfied so far. The staff is excellent and everything I see is encouraging at this point. So far, so good. They have a calendar of activities that keeps my wife fairly busy. They play bingo and mall visits. There are religious services, which are important to her, and daily exercise classes in the morning. My wife also gets physical, occupational, and speech therapy, so she gets the attention she needs. I’m pretty satisfied with the nursing, the responsiveness, and there are no issues in terms of attitude or willingness to address questions. The administrative staff is helpful.

My mother worked here for over 25 years and if she could still work there today, she would.

My aunt has been a resident of Evergreen House Health Center. The facility is very nice. When she started in this place, she was in a big single bedroom, but now she’s in a 2×4 bedroom. And for what I’m paying, it’s very expensive. The TV situation she has is inadequate. Although her personal care is doing a good job, I’m having problems with the laundry being returned back to her room at a sensible time. It takes them two to three days to get the laundry back to her room. It’s just been a little crazy having to call up and find out where her clothes are, because I have to go out and buy new nightgowns and pajamas. I’m not really too happy with that.
The staff itself is kind of unfriendly. When you can walk in and if they look up and see you, they won’t even greet you. As far as activities, she plays bingo probably as much as she can.

I’m in a nursing home called Waterview Villa Rehabilitation & Health Care Center in East Providence. It’s for long-term care because I just got from the hospital where I spent a week in. I’ve been here for over a year now and I thought I was ready to get out but I wound up in the hospital again.
The place is understaffed and that’s the biggest problem here. I think if they had more staff, they could handle things much better.
We have the best activities though, I have to say that. They do a fantastic job at keeping everyone busy.
The food is mediocre. It depends on whoever the cook is. They have a very small kitchen and everything is frozen. They don’t have somebody with enough imagination to put different things together to make a complete meal.
We have the best mechanic I’ve ever seen here. It’s an older building but it’s kept up pretty well.

My mom is now at Eastgate Nursing & Rehabilitation Center. She is there for long-term care. She has been there for a little bit now. The people are very friendly and very caring. They treat the patients with respect. It’s super-duper clean, and it’s convenient for me. She was in rehab for two weeks and then she was moved to the other side for long-term care just this past week, so we’re still feeling out the activities. They have a nice calendar that they put up for all the residents and patients for the activities that they offer. There are prayer services, bingo, and different craft activities. They try to get the patients involved. My mom’s not one that would do it, but others would. It just seems like it’s well rounded.
It’s not a place that stands out. When you first drive up, you think you’re just driving up to a residence. It’s a three-story Victorian. It’s a little bit old, it’s aged, and also we live in an older part of the country. But as soon as you get beyond that original entrance, it’s like boom, it opens up into a very modern place. It is an older facility, and it seems independently owned. From what I’ve seen, the activities are good, but my mom hasn’t really participated. She is not an outgoing type person, so it takes a little bit of coaxing to get her to participate. I’ve been with her while she’s eating, and the food looks and smells good. I’m a picky eater; I would eat it. She’s a Medicaid patient, so I don’t know what the fee is. I know what they charge per day to a private pay individual, and I think it’s costly.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Attleboro, MA
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.
