In Gettysburg, nursing homes typically charge an average of $11,315 monthly for a semi-private room, while seniors who prefer not to share can expect to pay about $12,075 for a private room.
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.
Nursing home care is the costliest choice in Gettysburg, standing at around $12,075 for a private room and $11,315 for a semi-private room. In-home care, which covers help with daily activities, and home health care, which includes light nursing services, share an average monthly rate of $5,291, a 53.2% price decrease compared with the cost of a semi-private room in a nursing home. Averaging $4,515 per month, assisted living, which provides residential help with daily living activities, costs even less. Seniors who live with caregivers may be suitable candidates for adult day health care, which is over $10,000 more affordable than nursing home care.
