Assisted Living Communities in Carlisle, Pennsylvania

Carlisle's typical senior pays $728 per month more for assisted living than the statewide average and $328 more than the national average. But the borough isn't the region's costliest, as York's seniors typically pay $682 per month more than their peers in Carlisle. However, assisted living costs in the area are usually more affordable, with savings ranging from only $5 per month in Chambersburg to $60 in Lebanon and $313 in Gettysburg. 

Carlisle's median monthly fee for assisted living is $4,828, but rates vary by location.

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:

• Veterans Benefits
• Life Insurance Policy
• Long-Term Care Insurance
• Reverse Mortgage

Assisted living and nursing homes are Carlisle's only residential facilities, both providing 24-hour care, meals, accommodation and group activities. At $10,828 per month, nursing homes cost more than assisted living's rate of $4,828 because they also provide medical care. At $4,767, in-home care and home health care costs aren't much more affordable than assisted living and the fee is only for 44 hours of care per month. Adult day health care's $1,629 is much cheaper but doesn't include accommodation and meals and requires daily trips to the center.
