Assisted living facilities in Dunn offer personal care support and social activities for about $3,000 per month. Alternatively, seniors who want to continue living at home can consider in-home care, which provides one-on-one help with daily activities, or home health care, which includes a similar scope of services in addition to light medical care. Both options offer more privacy and personalization than assisted living, so they cost about $1,000 more per month.
