The Cost of Other Types of Senior Living in Port Orange, FL

Although adult day care is Port Orange’s most affordable option, at $1,625 per month, it’s possibly assisted living that offers the best value. With a median fee of $3,975, assisted living provides the same services as home care, except 24/7, and some facilities may provide limited medical care, similar to home health care. However, home and home health care cost an additional $601 per month, and seniors still have to pay their home maintenance costs. The most expensive option is nursing home care, with a standard semiprivate room typically costing $8,213.
