Looking for an affordable assisted living or memory care in Mesa, Chandler, Tempe, Gilbert, Phoenix area. This article here http://www.assistedlivingfacilities.org/resources/assisted-living-costs/ gives averages for nationwide as well as Arizona. The average cost of assisted living in Arizona is $3100 a month. The hefty average of a nursing home is over $6000 a month.
Since most of the elderly population did not even plan to live this long as they have, they usually did not save enough for such extreme costs. So often the family is left to pay the bill, but how will they have the money to pay for their own care when the time arrives. Will this continue to be a vicious cycle? It doesn’t have to be. There is affordable excellent care out there.
At Blue Sky Assisted Living in the Phoenix area the average residents pays $2000 a month and that does not increase with memory care or higher level of care. Many places will have increased fees as the care increases. Our goal is to give the best possible care at the most affordable price. We provide home cooked meals, assistance dressing and showing, activities, laundry and medication administration. Care is provided in a regular home with 24/7 caregivers.
If this still seems out of reach in terms of cost Blue Sky Assisted Living is contracted with ALTC (Arizona Long Term Care) that will pay the difference if the person needing care monthly income is less than $2000 a month and they don’t have assets. So everyone can be provided the needed care at Blue Sky Assisted Living no matter their income, for more information call (480) 447-3377.
