The median monthly fee for assisted living in Tamarac is $4,385, although many facilities have higher and lower fees due to their pricing policies.
While many families use their own funds or personal assets to pay for assisted living, there are plenty of additional options to cover these costs. Some additional ways to finance assisted living costs include:
For more information about different ways to finance assisted living, visit our Assisted Living in Florida page.
Home health care’s median fee of $4,385 equals the assisted living rate, while in-home care’s $4,195 is more affordable. Adult day care’s $1,517 is the most affordable of all. However, all of these types of senior care still require the senior to pay to live at home, so assisted living could end up being the least costly option. The most expensive type of senior care by far is provided by nursing homes, which typically charge $9,019 for a semiprivate room — their most affordable option.
