Are there places, maybe private homes, that take people in for hospice care, rather than my mom being in an assisted living facility? I understand there would still be a housing and care fee but maybe not $5500/mo!, as we are now paying, and have been paying for over two years, for assisted living. (Specifically looking in Brevard County, FL)
Thanks!
Your mom can be under hospice care in the assisted living facility she's in now as well. Otherwise like others have mentioned, you can look for a smaller board and care home in your area. Best wishes.
Look into board and care homes in your area. That's probably what you're looking for -- a small home setting for just a few seniors rather than a facility like you're paying for now.
