Home Care Tends to be Least Expensive Option

How Much Does In-Home Care Cost? - ComForCare Canada - image-resources-homecare-costHome care is generally less expensive than other senior care options. Nursing home costs may range from about $200-$250 each day for a basic room and care, adding up to about $5,600 to $7,000 a month. Assisted living facilities may cost about $3,300 per month for a one-bedroom unit. Home care costs will vary considerably depending on the intensity of the client’s needs but usually remain considerably lower than these options.

Here are some potential sources for funding needed care:
  • Public resources
  • Long-term care insurance
  • Veterans benefits
  • Workers’ compensation insurance
  • Life insurance
  • Reverse mortgage funding
  • Private payments
  • Family member payments

Save on Expenses

Having a helping hand with chores may also help seniors avoid breaking dishes or other home products. While home care might seem to be an added expense at first, it may actually help to save on costs and problems in the long run. We can help families navigate the process of funding home care services. There are several ways to plan and budget for home care.

Save Family Members’ Time

How Much Does In-Home Care Cost? - ComForCare Canada - image-resources-savetimeWhen unexpected events occur in seniors’ lives such as injuries and condition complications, family members generally have to miss work to assist with transportation, wait at the hospital for diagnoses, and help with care. Home care services can help family members avoid missing work time by helping prevent these types of unexpected occurrences. When unexpected occurrences do happen, caregivers can also provide transportation and support. 

While family members typically want to be with a loved one after medical events occur, the pressure is alleviated, and the need to miss work is not as pressing. This may be viewed as a time and cost savings, as well as a benefit for your loved one.
