What senior care costs in St. Johns County

What changes the price

• Level of care needed, especially help with transfers and dementia

• Hours per visit and nights, weekends, and holidays for in-home care

Local tips

• Ask every community for its full fee schedule and the history of rate increases over the last three years.
• If your parent is a wartime veteran or surviving spouse, ask about the VA Aid and Attendance benefit before paying out of pocket.
• Move-in specials are common in newer buildings. Negotiate the community fee, which is often 1,500 to 5,000 dollars.
• Be wary of anyone who pressures you to sign the same day or will not let you see the state inspection report.
