Memory care is among the costlier senior care options in Waxahachie at $5,244 per month. Although this type of care costs 7% less than what nursing home residents pay for around-the-clock medical care, seniors may pay less for other local alternatives. For example, agencies charge $4,862 per month for in-home care, which includes companion and custodial services in clients’ homes, and home health care, which encompasses skilled nursing services, such as medication administration and disease management. Seniors who don’t need memory care pay $4,195 for assisted living, which provides residential care, and those who live at home and attend adult day health care pay $1,517 for daytime services.
