If home care isn’t the right choice, seniors have other options available. Both home care and home health care average $4,576 despite the additional skilled medical services provided by a home health care agency. Seniors may opt for assisted living if they want access to care around the clock at a lower price, with monthly costs averaging $1,250 less than home care. Those looking for daytime assistance while a primary caregiver works will find adult day health care more affordable, averaging just $1,322 monthly. On the other hand, seniors requiring skilled nursing or around-the-clock medical supervision may benefit from nursing home care, which is the most expensive option, with semiprivate rooms averaging $7,604 per month.

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.
Seniors who age in place may find themselves facing expensive issues, such as home repairs or modifications. Older adults in need of assistance have access to several resources in Burlington that can help them to manage expenses. These can include Meals on Wheels and resources that help with accessibility modifications. In order to seek assistance, please contact the programs listed below directly using the contact information provided.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Weatherization Assistance Program | (336) 904-0338 | Piedmont Triad Regional Council runs the Weatherization Assistance Program in Alamance County. It can assist homeowners with minor upgrades and repairs to their homes to improve energy efficiency. These may include testing for gas leaks, repairing or replacing heating equipment, sealing air infiltration sites and insulating attics, floors and walls. |
| Meals on Wheels | (336) 228-8815 | Homebound seniors who can't make their own meals can receive daily meals from Meals on Wheels. These are delivered to adults aged 60 or older who cannot drive or prepare meals and have less than 20 hours of in-home aid per week. |
| Residential Rehabilitation Program | (336) 222-5070 | The Residential Rehabilitation program provides grants to help low-income homeowners rehabilitate their homes. This includes repairing bathrooms and roofs and making homes more accessible. Other covered repairs include weatherization and energy-efficient upgrades, electrical work and chimney repairs. |
| Elderly/Disabled Property Tax Relief | (336) 228-1312 | Also known as a homestead exemption, this tax relief program allows low-income seniors 65 or older or those who are permanently disabled to exclude either $25,000 or up to 50% of the appraised value of their primary residence. This can reduce their overall property tax liability. |
| Low Income Energy Assistance Program | (336) 570-6532 | LIEAP provides a one-time payment to help low-income households cover their heating bills in winter. Seniors and people with disabilities receive priority assistance during the month of December. To qualify, households must meet an income test and have reserves at or below $2,250. |
| Family Caregiver Support Program | (336) 223-8099 | FCSP provides resources to unpaid family caregivers. This includes monthly educational programs and supplemental support. The program can also provide up to 20 hours of respite care every 90 days to prevent caregiver burnout. |
Aging can be a difficult process, and loved ones may not always ask for help – oftentimes 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.
