The average cost of skilled nursing home care in the United States can range from $3,000 to $7,500 per month or more. On a daily basis, the charges can range from $100 to $250 or more depending on whether the resident is in a private room, needs specialized care, or the geographical location. The nursing facilities have a right to be reimbursed for the professional services they offer and the care they provide your loved one. The issue is how will your family pay for the services of the nursing home?
