Continuing Care Retirement Communities
A Continuing Care Retirement Community (CCRC) is a type of senior living facility that offers a range of care options within one community, allowing residents to transition between different levels of care as their needs change over time. CCRCs typically provide independent living, assisted living, and skilled nursing care, all within the same campus or complex. This setup enables residents to remain in a familiar environment while receiving the appropriate level of care, from minimal assistance to more comprehensive medical support, without having to move to a different facility. The goal of a CCRC is to offer a continuum of care that adapts to the evolving needs of its residents, promoting long-term stability and continuity of care.
Cost of Care: In addition to an entry fee, this type of community can range from $2,500 to $6,000+ per month.
Assisted Living
An assisted living facility is a residential community designed to help seniors who need assistance with daily activities while still allowing them to maintain a degree of independence. These facilities offer a range of services, including help with personal care (such as bathing and dressing), medication management, and meal preparation. They also provide social and recreational activities, housekeeping, and sometimes transportation services. The goal is to create a supportive environment where residents can live comfortably and safely while receiving the care they need.
Cost of Care: Typically ranges from $3,500 to $6,500+ per month.
Residential Assisted Living
Much like an assisted living facility, a residential assisted living home is a type of housing designed to support seniors who need help with daily activities but do not require extensive medical care. These facilities offer a homelike environment where residents receive assistance with personal care tasks, such as bathing, dressing, and medication management. They also provide meals, housekeeping, and opportunities for social interaction and recreational activities. Unlike larger institutional settings, residential assisted living facilities often have a smaller, more personalized atmosphere, aiming to balance independence with support in a comfortable, community-oriented setting.
Cost of Care: Ranges from $3,500 to $6,500+ per month.
Memory Care
A senior memory care facility is a specialized type of residential care setting designed to support individuals with memory impairments, such as those caused by Alzheimer’s disease, dementia, or other cognitive disorders. These facilities offer a safe and structured environment tailored to the unique needs of residents with memory challenges. These facilities offer tailored care to address the unique needs of residents with memory challenges, ensuring their safety, comfort, and well-being.
Cost of Care: For specialized care for individuals with Alzheimer’s or other forms of dementia, costs usually range from $4,500 to $7,500+ per month, reflecting the need for additional supervision and specialized programming.
Skilled Nursing
A skilled nursing facility (SNF) is a type of healthcare setting that provides specialized medical care and rehabilitation services for individuals who need more intensive care than what is typically offered in an assisted living or general residential care setting. These facilities are designed to address the needs of patients who require ongoing medical supervision, skilled nursing care, or rehabilitation after a hospital stay or illness.
Cost of Care: If skilled nursing care is required, the costs can range from $6,000 to $10,000+ per month.
Home Health Services
Home health services provide essential medical and personal care to individuals in the comfort of their own homes. Designed for those who need assistance with daily activities or specialized medical care but prefer to remain in a familiar environment, these services are a valuable alternative to facility-based care. By offering tailored support, home health services help seniors maintain their independence and quality of life while receiving the care they need.
Cost of Care: Depending on the level of care needed home health services can range from $20/hour to $100+/hour.
Short Term Rehabilitiation
Short term rehabilitation facilities provide specialized care and therapy for individuals recovering from illness, injury, or surgery. Unlike long-term care settings, these facilities focus on helping patients regain their independence and functional abilities as quickly as possible. With a goal of transitioning individuals back to their home or a less intensive care environment, short term rehabilitation facilities offer targeted medical and therapeutic support.
Cost of Care: Short-term rehabilitation stays can range from $250 to $500+ a day.
