Senior care services in Bloomington and across the country are influenced by multiple factors, including location, care level and setting, and the total hours of service provided. Care in a skilled nursing facility is the most expensive option, with rates close to double those of assisted living. Adult day health services that provide limited weekday care in a group setting are the least costly. In-home options such as homemakers and home health aides cost over $1,000 more per month than assisted living, even though residential care typically includes room and board.
