The 10 Best Nursing Homes in North Richland Hills, TX for 2024

North Richland Hills is a suburban city part of Tarrant County, TX, around 11 miles from downtown Fort Worth. People aged 65 and older account for about 16.2% of the city’s population of 70,200. The city offers a lower-than-average crime rate, zero state income tax and access to affordable health care through facilities such as Medical City North Hills, which provides 24-hour medical care. Nursing homes further support North Richland Hills’ seniors, and the average monthly cost of $5,627 for a semiprivate room in a nursing home is significantly less than the national average.

Nursing homes provide 24/7 high-level care and health monitoring. Skilled nursing services may include wound care, medication administration, respiratory therapy and pain management.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in North Richland Hills, TX

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.
