Hackensack is an inner suburb of New York City, a rare low-density residential community bordered by towering skyscrapers. Home to 46,000 people, the city has grown rapidly, in part due to the rising senior population, which stands at over 16%. Hackensack seniors have access to numerous health providers, including St. Mary's General Hospital. Older adults who need skilled nursing care can find it for an average of $12,471 a month for a semi-private room, according to the Genworth 2021 Cost of Care Survey. This is higher than the national average of $7,908, though it's close to the New Jersey average of $11,254.
Nursing homes are for seniors who require 24-hour care and specialized medical services. These include wound care and rehabilitative work, plus medication administration and monitoring the residents' condition for a doctor. Seniors who need less medically oriented care might save on costs by choosing a less intensive care arrangement, such as home care or assisted living.
This guide lists nursing care prices in New Jersey and nearby communities, along with the cost of several other types of care. A list of free resources to help seniors find the right living option is also included.

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.
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.
Seniors and their families may have to do some research before finding the nursing care home that's right for them. Having local agencies and resources devoted to helping older adults get through the senior care system can be very helpful. The table below lists several such programs, which can help seniors find benefits and other free sources of aid.
