Care Cost Comparison
Senior care costs are influenced by location, the type of care needed and the number of service hours required. In Lake Forest, skilled nursing care in a semiprivate room is more than double the cost of assisted living, while in-home care, such as home health aides and homemaker services, are significantly more than assisted living per month. Residential care costs typically include living expenses such as rent, utilities and food, while in-home care does not. Seniors should take these expenses into account when deciding on what type of care is best for their needs.
