How families pay for skilled nursing in Florida
In Florida, as elsewhere, most families start by paying privately for assisted living, memory care or independent living, often drawing on savings, retirement income and, in many cases, the proceeds from selling a home. Long-term care insurance, when a parent or spouse purchased a policy years earlier, can also help cover these costs, though the specifics of what's covered vary by policy. Veterans and surviving spouses who meet eligibility requirements may qualify for VA Aid and Attendance, a benefit that can be applied toward the cost of care.
