The Cost of Assisted Living in Surrounding Areas

Prices for senior care are largely based on the type of care provided, and in Berkeley, the&nbsp;increased cost of living also has an impact. Nursing home care is nearly double the cost of assisted living, while the cost of in-home care, such as homemaker or home health aide services&nbsp;at 44 hours a week, is similar to assisted living.&nbsp; Note: residential care includes room and board fees, which can represent a substantial savings given the high real estate values and rental rates in the area.&nbsp;
