Costs of Home Care from Visiting Angels in Oceanside, CA
If you want the best possible home care from a professional agency you can trust — and at an affordable cost — Visiting Angels in Oceanside, CA should be at the top of your consideration list.
The cost of services is usually a primary deciding factor for families needing in-home assistance for a loved one. Visiting Angels addresses these financial concerns by developing customized plans that focus on both needs and budgets.
How Much Does Home Care Cost?
Moving your loved one to a nursing home or an assisted living facility may be an option. However, the high expense can make you feel reluctant. According to Genworth, the monthly median cost of a nursing home facility is between $8,000-$9,500.
In-home care is a more personal option at a lower cost.
While in-home care expenses vary across the country and are based on your senior’s individual needs, home care pricing can typically range between $35-$50 per hour (please contact us in Oceanside for specific rates). Actual prices usually depend on the level of assistance your loved one needs and the town or city where they live.
Visiting Angels in Oceanside can help you stay within your budget and avoid paying for unnecessary services by allowing you to schedule the frequency of care needed. For example, if you don’t require a 24-hour or a full-day caregiver, you can modify the hours necessary. We may be able to discount hourly rates if you schedule on an ongoing, routine basis or if you exceed a specified number of hours per week.
We may also accept long-term care insurance to help offset the cost of services. Your senior may qualify for coverage through their state’s Medicaid program or veteran’s benefits.
What Are Affordable Options for In-Home Care Services?
With in-home support from Visiting Angels in Oceanside, your senior can continue living at home for as long as possible. Visiting Angels provides affordable, flexible options that include:
- Assistance with activities of daily living

Visiting Angels also offers professional senior care for older adults in assisted living facilities who need additional one-on-one support, allowing them to remain in their current living situation for as long as possible — even as their needs change.
How to Pay for Cost of Care?
A critical component of long-term care planning is knowing where to find supplemental financial assistance. Here are five financial resources to explore:
- Medical Insurance
Most health and medical insurances do not cover in-home personal care. However, checking with a senior's medical insurance company is a good idea to determine if any insurance coverage is available. Although Medicare does not currently pay for home care, some states provide coverage through Medicaid. Some Medicare Advantage plans may offer benefits.
- Long-Term Care Insurance
Some seniors may have specific coverage through a long-term care insurance policy. These policies are separate from health insurance and are often purchased through an insurance agency for long-term care expenses. - Veterans Benefits
In-home coverage may be available through various VA programs if a senior receives a pension from the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA). - State and Local Assistance Programs
Certain state or local programs provide financial assistance for in-home care. Check with your state Department of Aging to find out if any apply to you or a loved one. - Private Pay
Most Visiting Angels’ clients pay out-of-pocket—or “private pay”—which means older adults pay through their own funds. Usually, the funds are from individual retirement accounts (IRA), pensions, Social Security benefits, 401(k), or other savings.
