Senior Housing – Can I Afford It?

There are a lot of housing options available for seniors in Hawai‘i, but they all have their own rules, costs, types of services and levels of care. The most common housing options are retirement communities, assisted living, nursing homes, CCRCs and ARCHs. It can get a bit confusing and time consuming to visit all of these facilities; therefore, you may want to narrow your search before tackling site visits.

After a little bit of research, you will soon learn about the exorbitant costs of long-term care and senior housing. Most people realize they do in fact need a financial plan. The three most common ways to pay for senior housing and/or long-term care is, personal monies, Medicaid/SSI and long-term care insurance. Educating yourself on senior housing options and planning are the two most important ways you can prepare for a comfortable move and be able to afford it.
