The price of assisted living in Flowood averages $4,123 per month, making it the most expensive city in Mississippi for this type of senior care. Its rate is slightly higher than the $4,000 monthly average paid nationally and significantly more than the state median rate of $3,493. Prices in Gulfport ($3,525) and Hattiesburg ($3,485) are much more affordable, as well as those in Monroe, Louisiana ($2,950) and Tuscaloosa, Alabama ($2,935).
Note: Data for senior care costs in Flowood wasn’t available, so data for the nearby city of Jackson was used instead.
The monthly cost of senior living in Flowood depends on various key factors, such as the type of care necessary and whether seniors choose residential, in-home or group center care. The least expensive option is adult day health services ($1,517) provided on weekdays only in a group care center. One-on-one homemaker and home health aide services cost more than double that amount at an average of $3,241 per month. Assisted living costs roughly $900 more, but it generally includes housing and meals. Nursing homes also provide room and board but cost another $2,100 per month, largely because they offer round-the-clock skilled nursing care. Seniors who remain at home still have to pay household bills in addition to the cost of in-home or care center services, which can increase their monthly cost of care significantly.
Over 65 million Americans with limited income and assets receive low-cost or free health insurance through the federal and state government-funded national Medicaid program. In Mississippi, the state program administered by the Division of Medicaid pays for services to meet the health care needs of families with dependant children, pregnant women, disabled and blind adults and the elderly. Eligible residents are covered for a range of health care benefits, including doctor and specialist visits, inpatient and outpatient hospital services, emergency room treatment and prescription drugs.
Qualifying for Medicaid
Seniors aged 65 or older and disabled or blind adults aged 64 or younger also qualify for long-term care in a nursing home if they’re U.S. citizens or legal immigrants and have:
Aid and Attendance and Housebound Benefits
Flowood senior veterans and their surviving spouses currently receiving a regular VA pension may qualify for an additional monthly amount if they have certain extra-care needs.
