How families pay for assisted living in Kentucky
Most families in Kentucky start by paying privately for assisted living, memory care or independent living, drawing on retirement income, savings, and often the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a parent purchased a policy years ago, can also help cover monthly costs, though the terms and benefit amounts vary by policy. Veterans and surviving spouses who meet certain service and financial requirements may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can be applied toward the cost of care.
