1. How much does living at Emerald City Senior Living in Seattle cost?
The cost to live in a senior living community varies considerably based on the facility’s location, level of care, accommodation type, and personal care options. The majority of senior living communities have you pay a monthly base rate to cover your accommodation, meals, utilities, maintenance, housekeeping, transportation, and activities.
The higher the level of care needed and additional personal services factored in, your monthly rate will be more expensive. For example, you’d expect to pay more per month for assisted living than for independent living.
At Emerald City Senior Living in Seattle, you’ll only be charged for the care and services you require. Our Executive Director and Wellness Director will help determine the monthly cost of your care plan after completing an assessment based on your unique needs.
2. What financing options are available for Seattle residents in the Maple Leaf neighborhood?
Most people pay for a senior living community through a combination of private funding and proceeds from selling their homes.
However, there may be assistance available to you. For example, if you were a veteran, you may be entitled to Veterans Aid & Attendance which can provide up to $2,200 a month to a veteran and their spouse or up to $1,900 a month for a veteran without a spouse or dependent. To learn more about this option, visit your local or regional VA Center or visit the VA Seattle website.
Additionally, if you have long-term care insurance or a life insurance policy, you may be able to utilize that to help cover senior living costs. You’ll want to be sure to consult a financial advisor when considering these options.
