the Price of Assisted Living Facilities

My brother recently has been in a rehabilitation center. He suffered a stroke, He is there 24 hours a day. The cost is $200 a day. Insurance barely covers this. He is in a semi private room and on oxygen. He receives therapy twice a day. He receives some medications but this is not covered in the cost. It is handled by his insurance. As for how long he will be there is still unknown,

The center he is at is run by the local hospital. Although it is higher in price, he has the hospital close by if he should need it. The facility itself is new so it is very clean. The rooms are light and airy with a nice view of the river. The patients either eat in their rooms or in a communal dining area. As for the staff, they seem very qualified. The aides are a little indifferent to the patients and I see that they are not mean to them just indifferent. The nurses seem to care for the patients. As for the therapists, my brother likes them and feels they do an excellent job. They are very patient. As stated the only concern is the aides and I hope they have a background check/

It is difficult to find the perfect rehabilitative service for someone. Always make sure your doctor approves. Check with the state for any problems. Try and find out if the staff have had background checks. Most of all watch for any signs of problems.
