Thinking about your next home? If you’re of retirement age and weighing your options, pricing is no doubt in your mind.

At Vantage Pointe Village in Ashland City, we offer a range of services that can meet your needs and a warm, inviting community where you can thrive.
Understanding the Average Senior Living Costs
According to a Genworth Cost of Care Survey, assisted living in the Ashland City area averages around $4,000 a month, with additional charges for added services, and nursing home care jumps up to nearly $8,000 a month for a private room. The average cost for home health is $4,185 per month.
Understanding What is Best for You
Assisted living is best for seniors who want to maintain an active, independent lifestyle but still require assistance with everyday living. Nursing homes are usually best for those with more extensive health care needs and physical limitations.
Though home health and assisted living costs are similar, with home health, you are receiving limited assistance and can be more isolated without the opportunities for socialization that senior living communities provide. Staying active physically and socially is very important for seniors’ health and well-being.
When looking at overall expenses, if you elect to stay in your home, you must also factor in the cost of home modifications like making bathrooms, stairs, and living areas safe and accessible as you age, as well as general home maintenance. You’ll also need to consider costs for meals, groceries and transportation assistance.
Vantage Pointe Village, an enriching, resort-style senior living community in Ashland City, is priced right and includes many amenities and benefits. You won’t have to worry about costly repairs, constant updates, and additional bills and maintenance. We put your care and well-being first so that you can focus on what matters to you.
