Protect Your Home and Finances

from Costly Nursing Home Fees

Let’s face it. Nursing care facilities are

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.

The cost of in-patient nursing home continues to rise.Currently, Long-Term Care.Gov reports show you canexpect to pay $225 to $253 per day for a nursing homedepending on whether your loved one resides in asemi-private or private room. 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.
