Home Care Costs

How can a family afford home care costs? Besides digging into a love one's assets, or your adult children assets, there are alternative sources of funding, and financial support that can keep a senior at home. The alternative sources are available, if not always easy to identify. There is long- term care insurance, and government programs if the right conditions are met. Every possible source of funding and free assistance should be investigated. Call all of the agencies, and government departments at the same time, because waiting for decisions can take time. Contact your volunteer caregiving programs, churches, and other faith community organizations.
