Families pricing nursing homes in Melbourne should budget $9,186 per month for a semiprivate room and another $776 for a private one.
Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
Due to the intense levels of care provided, nursing home costs are the most expensive, typically $9,186 for a semiprivate room and $9,962 for a private room. Adult day health care centers have the lowest overhead and provide the most basic care, which reflects their typical costs of $1,365. Assisted living provides secure accommodation and basic care, such as housekeeping and medication management, for $4,100. For monthly fees of approximately $4,385, seniors can get home care or home health care which includes basic medical support, in their own homes.

Seniors in Melbourne can access a wealth of free and subsidized resources. The following list includes methods to get help paying for long-term health care, who to contact if that care falls below acceptable standards and where to get assistance if home care is still possible.
| Resource | Contact | Service |
|---|---|---|
| Long-Term Care Ombudsman | (850) 414-2323 | Seniors in nursing homes, their families, and third parties can contact the Long-Term Care Ombudsman if they have issues they can't resolve with their facilities. The ombudsman investigates complaints and advocates for seniors while seeking resolutions with the owners and managers of the facilities. Serious complaints, such as elder abuse allegations, are immediately referred to the relevant authorities. |
| Aging Matters in Brevard | (321) 639-8770 | Aging Matters in Brevard is a private nonprofit focused on supporting seniors who want to remain in their homes. It operates several services for homebound seniors who need daily assistance, such as Meals on Wheels. Volunteers deliver freshly-prepared meals around noon on weekdays, using the opportunity to check on the senior's welfare. All meals are free of charge, although donations are welcomed. The organization also operates Pets on Wheels for seniors who qualify for meal services. This program makes monthly deliveries of free food for cats and dogs that's dependent on the donations it receives. |
| Safe Ride Senior Transportation | (321) 253-4430 | Safe Ride Transportation is a non-emergency door-to-door service provided by the Brevard Alzheimer's Foundation. Its vehicles include buses and minivans that transport enrolled participants to medical appointments at Joe's Club adult day centers. There's also an ADA paratransit service operating wheelchair-accessible vehicles that can take passengers to most locations in Brevard County for a reduced rate. Locations can include pharmacies and grocery stores. |
| Statewide Medicaid Managed Care | (877) 711-3662 | Long Term Care (LTC) is part of Florida's Medicaid program that helps seniors who need nursing home levels of care. Due to a limited budget, the application process is very strict. However, seniors who already reside in nursing homes will be accepted into the program. Those not in nursing homes must meet the financial eligibility demands, although meeting them is not a guarantee of assistance. For an individual, these include assets not exceeding $2,000, a gross monthly income of no more than $2,382 and a personal needs allowance capped at $130 per month. |
