How to Get Financial Assistance for Adjustable Beds

Adjustable beds typically start at $500 in smaller sizes and can easily cross the $2,000 threshold for split designs, making them a significant financial investment for most buyers. Using Medicare or Medicaid can lower your out-of-pocket payments. That said, there are a few stipulations with both of these programs to consider.

Emergency Housing Guide

An estimated half-million people were homeless in the United States from 2007 through 2020, and many of these individuals were seniors and veterans. Unfortunately, seniors who live on the street have little access to resources that can help them maintain their mental and physical health, and on top of that, many are living without the support of their loved ones.

Homeless seniors face more risks than those who reside at home or in long-term care facilities. In fact, according to the National Coalition for the Homeless, the estimated average life expectancy for homeless people is just 50 years, which gives little hope to seniors who don’t have a place to call home.

Thankfully, there are programs available throughout the country to help homeless seniors find stable housing and meet other basic needs. Below, we provide information about these programs and how to find help.

About Nursing Home Care

Nursing Home Infographic: A nursing home can be a good option if a senior loved one is in need of more care than a residential facility is capable of providing them – for example if they have medical needs or significant problems attending to daily activities. Seniors that may need nursing home care include those who require help managing medications, as well as those who are in need of mobility help, assistance with hygiene issues such as bathing, dressing, and incontinence, and more. Nursing homes typically include private, semi-private, and shared rooms as well as facilities such as dining halls, social areas, and outdoor areas. They provide a higher level of care with more medical attention than assisted living facilities.
