The $4,950 average cost of assisted living makes this care the most affordable in Benicia. However, seniors may still want to consider other options. Home care provides similar services, such as housekeeping and meal preparation, except within seniors' residences, whereas home health care includes skilled nursing. Both cost approximately 20.4% more than assisted living. Nursing home care also provides skilled nursing alongside therapies and medical treatments but costs $5,513 more than assisted living, based on semi-private room rates. This is due to the much higher level of medical support it offers.
