Review of Majestic Care of Cedar Village Assisted Living
Rooms are plain, food was terrible and the nurse was rude. Very understaffed. Nurse said she has a 4 hour time frame to get to 18 patients so it is hours before you get checked on. My Dad was...

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Mason, OH
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
At $7,848 for a semi-private room and $8,760 for a private room, nursing home care is one of the most expensive options in Mason. It's about 68% more expensive than assisted living and 52.4% more expensive than in-home and home health care. This is because nursing homes offer extensive medical support, while assisted living delivers personal care in a facility and in-home care provides personal care in the senior's residence. The least expensive option is adult day health care, which only provides supervision during the day. It costs $1,690 per month, which is 78.4% less expensive than nursing home care.
