I visited this facility

Legacy House of Ogden was nice and it was closer to home, but it was too expensive for me, and I can't cook there. The staff was very outgoing and very cordial. When we walked down the hallways when they were showing us things, the staff said "hello" and "how are you?" with a nice smile. It wasn't forced, they were genuinely happy to see somebody. They stopped whatever they were doing, and they didn't seem irritated in any way. They were very happy to see us. The rooms were of average size, and they were good. It wasn't just one room, it had a bedroom, a living room, and a kitchen. A combination type of thing and to me, it was very nice. It was sunny, well-lit, and it was really a nice place.

My mother-in-law couldn't eat the food at The Harrison Regent. The menu and the food selection went downhill. I had talked to the manager about it because the quality of the food was really bad. The new manager was nice, but they don't really care about how the residents feel. All they care is about their money. Everything was premade. The chef and a lot of their management people left. The place was fine, but their annual increase in rent was absolutely out of control. She was happy with their activities. They had a bell choir, their senior citizens performed in other places, and she enjoyed the gym and the opportunity to work out.

Legacy House of Ogden was very nice and clean. Since my mother wanted a specific room-size, the staff showed us a room that was under renovation. They were putting in marble countertops and updating things, but my mom thought it was too small. We were shown their library, an exercise room, and the meal areas, which were very nice. They said that they serve the food restaurant style. The room we saw was a large 1-bedroom, and we went to see a furnished 1-bedroom apartment also. My mother's furniture would fit in there. It was a very nice 1-bedroom. I really like the staff member, Diana, who gave us the tour.

The people at Legacy House of Ogden were great, very nice, very accommodating, and very upfront with everything. The facility was really nice. They allowed my mother to take an exercise class while she was there. The staff was very helpful, very nice, very kind, and very patient. They had the full-service food cafeteria.

The staff at The Harrison Regent was really helpful, took their time, showed us around, and answered questions. It's a little older, and it could be updated a little bit. We liked the more independent living aspect of it. They had exercises and outdoor group activities, and they take them to stores. My mother said the food was good.

My mother is now at The Gardens. It is really nice, and it has done her a world of good. Her room is kept clean, and it looks really good. They have crafts every day, ice cream day, and once a month they do a big activity for the family. They are all very happy. They have some cool activities going on. They have a big living room in the front, a dining room in the front of the building and another dining room at the other end of the building and a small sitting room in the middle.

We chose The Harrison Regent for our grandma, and it's great. She really likes it and she's doing well. The place is very clean, the meals are really good and the people are all very friendly. Overall, it just seems like a good atmosphere. They have all sorts of different activities. They get together and watch basketball games, they do crafts, and they have exercise class and so on. They provide three meals daily and also snacks. They do housekeeping service once a week, provide cable and internet, access to the library and a computer. The staff is very helpful and attentive. One of the things that impressed me was, that the lady who gave me the tour knew everybody by name and their individual situation. I have eaten a few meals there and I would definitely rate them a 5 on that. We went to other places, and this one seems to be reasonably priced.

Assisted Living Costs in Weber County

According to Genworth’s 2018 Cost of Care study, the average monthly cost for assisted living in Weber County is slightly below the national average at $3,893 but somewhat higher than the state average of $3,350. Weber County is the most expensive area in Utah for assisted living with costs of almost $1,000 per month higher than in areas such as Provo ($2,898) and Logan ($2,950).

Note: Senior care cost data wasn’t available for Weber County itself, so data from the Ogden area, the county seat, was used.

Care Cost Comparison

The most significant factor driving senior care costs is the type of care desired or required. This is quite evident in Weber County, where a semiprivate room in a nursing home costs over $2,000 more monthly than assisted living. Assisted living is about $200 more per month than homemaker services, but it’s about $100 cheaper than home health services. Although there isn’t much of a price difference between assisted living and home service options, it’s important to consider the expenses seniors incur by continuing to live in their residence. Most of those expenses, including rent or mortgage, utilities, food, cleaning and maintenance, are covered in assisted living rates.

Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in Weber County

Medicaid in Utah

Low-income residents in Utah may apply for medical assistance through Medicaid, a federal- and state-funded health care program. To qualify for Medicaid in Utah:

  • Individuals must meet program criteria and the rules for citizenship, residency, and income.
  • Continued coverage is contingent on qualifying each month.
  • The income limit is 100% of the Federal Poverty Level.
  • One person may have up to $2,000 in assets, while a couple may have up to $3,000 in assets.


Financial eligibility takes into account assets, including cash, easily liquidated items, bank accounts, vehicles and vacation residences. Each Medicaid program has different standards for counting assets, but none counts primary residences.

If monthly income exceeds the Medicaid limit, an eligibility worker can determine if a person may qualify for the spend-down, or Medicaid Medically Needy, program. A participant would agree to spend-down monthly income to the Medicaid limit by either paying a medical provider for some medical bills or paying monthly income over the Medicaid limit to the state. Note that not all Medicaid programs allow this option. 

Elderly residents who qualify for Supplemental Security Income or Social Security disability are automatically eligible for Medicaid.

The state offers several Medicaid programs, including the Aged, Blind or Disabled program for people aged 65 years and older. This provision covers care services such as home health, personal attendant care and services commonly provided in health care facilities. 

Home and Community-Based Services Waiver Programs

Medicaid, via various HCBS waiver programs, covers long-term care, including assisted living, for applicants who qualify medically and financially. These services are designed to help people live comfortably and safely in their homes or in the community.


Aging Waiver

The Aging waiver provides services to help Utah seniors remain in community-based settings such as assisted living facilities or family homes. This program supports independent living as much as possible. To qualify, individuals must be at least 65 years of age and require nursing facility level of care. Services under the Aging waiver program include:

  • Adult companion services
  • Adult day health services
  • Chore services
  • Personal attendant services
  • Community transition
  • Nonmedical transportation
  • Home-delivered meals
  • Supportive maintenance from a home health aide


The income limit is 100% of the Federal Poverty Level, adjusted yearly. An individual may have up to $2,000 in assets, but spousal limits are complex. This waiver has a spend-down provision. Contact the Division of Aging and Adult Services for more information at (801) 538-3910.


Community Supports Waiver

The Community Supports waiver provides services for Utah residents with intellectual disabilities so that they can remain in their homes or other community-based settings. This waiver offers many of the same benefits as the Aging waiver and has no age restrictions. However, there’s a waiting list, and beneficiaries must meet stringent requirements:

  • Must have functional impairment in at least three areas of major life activity
  • For intellectual disabilities, the onset of the condition must have occurred prior to age 18; for other conditions, the onset must have occurred before age 22
  • Must meet the level of care criteria for admission to an intermediate care facility for people with intellectual disabilities


The Community Supports waiver has financial eligibility rules much like those of the Aging waiver. The Division of Services for People with Disabilities at (801) 538-4200 can give further information.

Other Financial Assistance Programs for Assisted Living

Assisted Living Bridge Loans

Elderlife Financial Services offers bridge loans that can help seniors and their relatives with short-term costs of assisted living, skilled nursing or home care for up to 12 months or longer. This financing option disburses funds directly to care providers such as assisted living facilities, which helps avoid misuse of those funds. These loans are in the form of a line of credit that can help seniors and their families absorb assisted living expenses while waiting for more permanent financial resources to be arranged. Contact Elderlife Financial at (888) 228-4500 for more information.

Veterans Pensions

A wartime veteran or their surviving spouse with limited financial resources may qualify for a non-service pension. The Veterans Administration provides three levels of pensions:

  • Basic Pension/Improved Income for veterans over the age of 65 who are healthy with low incomes
  • Aid & Attendance for veterans over 65 who need assistance with activities of daily living
  • Housebound for veterans who are 100% disabled, not necessarily due to military service


Veterans and their families should note that financial aid from the Department of Veterans Affairs may affect eligibility for other government programs, and it may take several months to begin receiving benefits. VA pensions are disbursed directly to the beneficiary monthly. Contact a veterans services organization listed below for more information.

Senior Centers in Weber County

Senior centers offer enriching classes and seminars, exciting games and music events, and field trips. Elderly residents can enjoy congregate meals and transportation to and from some of these facilities. These senior centers also give participants access to health-related support such as health education, blood pressure screening and fitness activities. Weber County Human Services has a list of county senior centers so seniors can locate the one closest to them.

Veterans Affairs

Elderly veterans in Weber County may be eligible to receive medical assistance and other aid through the Department of Veterans Affairs. Weber County veteran service organizations support U.S. military vets with the cooperation of government and nonprofit agencies at the local, state and federal levels. Contact or visit the local or regional benefits office to apply.
