Placing my mother in a New Jersey assisted living that is approximately 8,000.00 a month. My sister-in-law may want to place her mom (who has currently resided with me for the last five years) in a facility in Florida, because she thinks it is cheaper and she lives down there 6 months out of the year.
I am happy with this home 2 patients in a private home set up to be a small ALF they include everything-food, depends,showering,laundry.The home is immaculate.The family care doctors come directly to the home, the foot doctor as well as therapy PT,OT etc..nurse on call 24/7 if needed. About 1/3 rd the cost with private room,handicap accessible home and a much more home like friendly enviroment .
I know they have one opening now if you are interested, message me and I can give you the info.Cost depends on level of care but as I said much cheaper and a personal touch- not people coming in and out all the time, changing staff etc..good luck and yes I am sure either way it is cheaper here from my research!
