What Is Residential Care?
There are many Residential Care facilities for family members and seniors to choose from; each one serves a different purpose depending on the needs and types of health care the resident needs and desires.
Unlike skilled nursing facilities and memory care communities, Residential Care is focused on helping seniors with the activities of daily living and residential care. Signs that Residential Care may be a good option for you or a loved one include:
- Needing help with medication management
- Noticeable weight loss or gain
- Loss of mobility or increase in falls
- Neglecting household maintenance and chores
- Being no longer able to perform daily tasks of grooming and preparing meals
- Increased isolation
Families will have peace of mind knowing their loved ones are living healthy, independent and active lives. They’ll have more time to focus on enjoying time together and enjoying all life has to offer.
Like Home – Only Better.
Our open floor plans of living, dining, kitchen, and activity rooms provide an inviting environment that residents love to call home. Most residents walk out of their apartments and into welcoming common spaces. There are no elevators or endless hallways. Instead, residents enjoy an easy-to-navigate one-story community … it feels like home – only better.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between Residential Care and a nursing home?
Overall, the main difference between Residential Care and care offered in a nursing home is that nursing homes provide medical and personal care in a clinical setting, while Residential Care primarily provides personal care in a homelike, social setting.
Who qualifies for Residential Care?
Seniors whose health or well-being requires a higher level of support or those who would benefit from a healthier lifestyle and social engagement qualify for Residential Care. Most communities conduct a health assessment that follows state regulations to determine what level of care or assistance is best for each individual.
What kind of services does Residential Care provide?
- One to three meals a day
- Monitoring of medication
- Personal care, including dressing and bathing
- Housekeeping and laundry
- Some medical services
- Social and recreational activities
- Care coordination
- Mobility assistance
- Complimentary transportation
Some Residential Care communities offer respite care or Short-Term Stays. Additionally, some communities offer access to home care services for those who may need more assistance than is provided at the community but who are not yet ready for a skilled nursing care center.
How much does Residential Care cost?
The Genworth Cost of Care Survey 2020 estimates the regional median monthly rate for Residential Care is $3,750, which breaks down to around $123 per day. To put that into some context, the same survey says a private room in a nursing home will cost around $231 per day ($7,026 per month). Home health aide services average $165 per day. At Charter Senior Living of Northpark Place, monthly rates start at $3,300.
Who pays for Residential Care?
While your personal health insurance coverage continues and your pharmaceutical coverage continues, Medicare typically doesn’t pay the costs for Residential Care. Most Residential Care residents pay for this kind of care from their personal resources or with help from coverage provided by long-term care insurance. Veterans Aid and Attendance Benefits can help cover the cost for eligible Veterans and surviving spouses who are over age 65.
