READ MOREAccording to Genworth’s 2021 Cost of Care Survey, Zephyrhills shares Florida’s median monthly home care fee of $4,767, which is more affordable than the national average of $4,957, so seniors relocating to the city from other states may find it cost-effective, depending on their state of origin. The city is also less costly than some nearby cities, such as North Port, where the average is $5,720. However, there are notable exceptions, such as nearby Lakeland, where the median fee is lower, at $4,576, and further north in Homosassa Springs, where it’s $4,273, saving almost $500 per month.

Those requiring medical care from licensed nurses and therapists pay an additional $95. Home care is less costly than nursing home care by about $4,160 per month, but the latter is a medical service, so they can’t be directly compared.

Given the high cost of in-home care, many people use one or more forms of financial assistance to cover the expenses. Below, we explain some of the most common sources of financial help for paying for in-home care. If none of these options are available to you, you can reach out to your Area Agency on Aging or Aging and Disability Resource Center to learn about local resources.
Although aging in place is often the preferred option, this doesn’t mean seniors aren’t concerned about how they’ll handle some issues, such as making their homes safe and paying the bills. Fortunately, they don’t need to face these struggles alone because there are many nonprofit organizations dedicated to helping older citizens age safely and comfortably at home.

Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – often times it’s up to their family to evaluate their need for help around the house. While no two situations are exactly alike, this checklist can help you and your loved ones determine when it’s time to start the search for a home care provider.
If you’ve determined that your loved one needs the assistance of a care provider in their home, it may be time for a difficult conversation. Handled correctly, however, this process can bring a family together and ensure that everyone’s concerns are addressed. Use this PDF as a starting point to help the conversation stay as positive and productive as possible.
