Long term care facilities costs continue to climb. According to the MetLife 2011 Marketing Survey, private room nursing home rates rose %4.4 to an average of $239/day, and assisted living jumped %5 to an average of $3477/month. After holding steady for a year, adult day care service costs saw a %4.5 increase. Fortunately, the average cost of Home Health Aide and Companion services held steady.
In-Home health services continue to provide the biggest bang for the
healthcare buck. No other service can offer the one-on-one caregiver to
patient ratio for the same costs. A quick glance at this chart gives a good breakdown of how the costs per service compare.
