Nursing home costs in Waxahachie are $5,171 per month for a semiprivate room and $6,692 per month for a private room.
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.
Some Waxahachie seniors may not need the specialized services of a nursing home, or at least not right away. It’s important for seniors considering long-term care to explore all their options, no matter their financial situation. Adult daycare, which allows seniors to return home at night, is the least expensive, $1,571 per month.
