Assisted Living Costs in Placerville

The Cost of Assisted Living in Surrounding Areas

To accurately compare the cost of senior care in Placerville, it’s important to consider the underlying factors that affect the rates. These typically include the type of care needed, setting and whether accommodations and meals are included. Nursing home ($8,517) and assisted living ($4,473)&nbsp;facility rates include room and board, but nursing homes average over $4,000 more per month because they provide around-the-clock skilled nursing care. Homemaker ($4,767) and home health aide ($4,957) services appear to average just a few hundred dollars more per month than assisted living, but this isn’t an accurate comparison. The difference is likely much greater because in-home care only covers the direct service hours provided. Seniors must also pay for food and household operating expenses, which can increase their monthly costs significantly.

<li>Prescription medications</li>
<li>Doctor and specialist visits</li>
<li>Physical therapy</li>
<li>Dental and vision care</li>
</ul> Qualifying for Medi-Cal Coverage Placerville seniors aged 65 and older are eligible for coverage if they’re American citizens or legal residents and have: <ul>
<li>A monthly income of $1,242 or less as an individual or $1,682 as a couple</li>
