What does assisted living and nursing home care cost?
You know, typically assisted living in West Texas starts between $3,000 and $4,000 and it goes up from there. A lot of it depends on how nice the facility you want to live in and the level of care that you need. Nursing home care in the Lubbock area starts from about $5,000 a month, a little bit less on some of the rural areas, but the $5,000 a month rooms typically in the Lubbock area that would be for a shared room. If you want a private room, or if you want to have your own room in the nursing home, that generally starts at about $6,500 a month. So for most folks the cost of paying for nursing home or assisted living is there’s a cost that pretty quickly wipes out the average person’s retirement savings. But the good news is with some planning we can almost always protect most or all of a person’s savings even if they need long term care.
