The average cost for a semiprivate room in Virginia Beach is $7,665 per month, while another $1,034 pays 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 any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Senior care costs vary, shaped by the intensity of care provided and the community’s costs. Adult day centers have the lowest costs, at $1,950. Homebound seniors who need caregivers to come to them can get standard services (home care) and basic medical support (home health care) for the same fee of $3,813. Due to including accommodation with care, assisted living’s costs are higher, at $4,365. Nursing homes have the highest fees, typically charging $8,699 in Virginia Beach for a private room, although semiprivate rooms are available for $7,665.
