It varies and depends on which state you are in, which city, etc. The home my mother is in costs around $4500/mo. for private pay. She is on Medicaid and her cost is only about $1200/mo. That is Missouri......others here can give you different pricing I imagine. Is there private insurance, long-term care policy? There are several different ways that the bill is paid.
Ed_there are many variables that come into the pricing for assisted living-To begin with, they vary from state to state; the level of care or (tier) plays a role on the costs, as the more care that is provided, the higher the costs; and lastly there are in some areas Not-for-profit vs For profit facilities. Once you have establised the 'best fit'-you then might want to get on a waiting list. Good luck in your search-and if possible try not to schedule any appointments in advance...as you want to check out a facility-as it actually is (and not what is prepared in advance).. Best, Hap
