The Cost of Senior Living — What to Expect
Cost varies greatly in the senior care industry, depending on factors like amenities and the type of care your loved one needs — whether it's independent living, assisted living, adult family homes, skilled nursing, or in-home care. Depending on rent and the level of care needed, costs can range between $3,000–$12,000 per month.
Our advisors can help you understand costs, explore funding options including VA benefits, long-term care insurance, and Medicaid, and find communities that fit your budget.

Caregiver PTSD
Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is an anxiety disorder caused by very stressful, frightening, or distressing events. Although PTSD is typically associated with combat veterans, it can also affect caregivers.
Caregiving can be not just physically exhausting but emotionally, mentally, and financially draining. This is especially true for adult children who take care of parents with dementia or severe disability. Many of them feel an extreme amount of pressure and guilt to provide care but feel powerless to stop the debilitating condition of their parents.
Learn more about caregiver PTSD, symptoms, and treatment options on our FAQ page.
