Senior care costs are based on the location, the type of care and the number of direct service hours provided each week.

In-home senior care, such as a home health aide and homemaker services, are priced close to assisted living based on 44 hours of care weekly.&nbsp; When comparing senior care options, it’s important to recognize that residential care, such as&nbsp;an assisted living facility or nursing home, includes meals, accommodation and home maintenance — expenses that are not included with in-home senior care services.&nbsp;&nbsp;
