Paying for assisted living in Riverside often requires a mix of private and public payment strategies. By using state-funded financial assistance programs, veterans’ benefits and personal savings, seniors can cover residential care services without compromising long-term financial security.
In Riverside, low-income seniors can qualify for financial aid to help pay for the cost of assisted living. Currently, there are two programs that may help fund assisted living, including Medi-Cal, which offers an Assisted Living Waiver program, and Supplemental Security Income – Category G.
