“My grandma is so happy at Las Cruces Village, and the staff there is just wonderful. She’s always busy with the pool or hanging out with friends, which makes us feel great knowing she's in such a good spot. Honestly, it’s been the perfect move for her!”
“I really want to keep my loved one at home. I started off by hiring private caregivers to help. That ended up being an additional stress on top of an already stressful situation. Care co has been great with finding quality caregivers that meet our families specific needs. Highly recommend!”
“My mom lived in Solstice for approximately 18 months before we just moved her to a memory care facility. I can tell you that the leadership at the facility truly cares for the elderly. Special thanks to Erika and Laura for their wonderful compassion and care for my mother. I am eternally grateful!”

How families pay for independent living in New Mexico
Most families in New Mexico begin by paying privately for assisted living, memory care or independent living, often drawing on savings, retirement income and, when needed, proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, where a policy is already in place, can help cover a portion of these costs as well. It is worth remembering that Medicare does not pay for assisted living or memory care; it only covers a short stay in skilled nursing care following a qualifying hospital stay, so it should not be counted on as an ongoing source of payment.
