expensive, but sometimes they are
necessary. If you family member needs
round the clock care, for example, a visiting
nurse or home care specialist might be
insufficient. So, in some cases, it makes
sense to seek a facility that can offer your
loved one the best, quality care available.
However, this also presents another
problem cost.

And these estimates arethe average. The price you pay in your area might beeven more than this. Often, these costs exceed yourloved one’s monthly income. That means you must getcreative in finding new ways to cover expenses, whichmight include selling your loved one’s home and otherassets and perhaps even some of your own, but thereis a better way.
