Review of Bella Terra Lombard
My sister is currently in a room that should have been cleaned before placement. She was in a larger room and moved for a patient who needed " isolation". I think it was because of money. The...

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Lombard, IL
Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Lombard, IL
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.
- Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one's stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those who need long-term care will have to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
- Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the cost of living expenses in a skilled nursing facility for qualifying seniors. Care and room and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras such as specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility requirements are strict and complex, so not all seniors qualify for Medicaid benefits.
- Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including 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 local financial assistance programs for seniors.
The Cost of Other Types of Senior Care
In Lombard, nursing homes come at a monthly cost of $6,996 for semi-private rooms and $8,060 for private rooms. For independent seniors needing assistance with personal tasks but not round-the-clock medical supervision, there's the option of assisted living communities. These facilities, which provide services such as medication management and housekeeping, are priced at $4,825 per month, offering savings of $2,171 compared to nursing homes.
Seniors who prefer to remain in their own homes can choose home health care, which is $1,276 less expensive than nursing home care. Home health care involves visits from medical professionals, licensed nurses and occupational therapists. Alternatively, older adults in need of assistance with daily activities and chores can opt for nonmedical in-home care, which is $1,324 more affordable than nursing home care.
