Nursing Homes South Carolina

Throughout the state, South Carolina offers several options for long-term senior care facilities. The average cost of residence in a South Carolina nursing home or skilled care facility ranges from $6000 to $8000 per month. While care can be expensive, there are options to help individuals and families cover some of the associated costs of living in a care center.

 

Understanding Long-Term Care Facilities

Nursing homes may be a good fit for people who need more assistance than can be offered by home care or aging in place, including support for medical and personal care. Nursing homes provide general medical care, but nursing home residents still may need to visit off-site doctors for additional services. Skilled nursing facilities employ specialists in their care center, in many cases offering services like physical therapy or restorative care on-site, making the care more accessible to the facility's residents. Skilled nursing facilities typically include physicians among their staff members to supervise residents undergoing treatment.

 

Covering the Cost of Care

Given the cost of care in the state, enrolled Medicare and Medicaid members may want to use these services to offset the cost of a long-term care facility. However, Medicare does not typically cover the costs of residence in a long-term care facility. Medicaid may cover some of these costs, but both Medicare and Medicaid are accepted by the majority of South Carolina's long-term care facilities to cover the associated medical costs of care, like prescriptions and additional medical visits. Since each facility operates differently, individuals and family members should consult the staff at a particular location for information on what Medicare or Medicaid would cover, and any potential changes in coverage that may occur during a nursing home stay.
