Temple (TX) Assisted Living Facilities & Senior Lifestyle Options

Your activities of daily living have not decreased enough to warrant nursing home care, so why give up your independence and your dignity. Instead, opt for assisted living and have the confidence of knowing when you need help it is readily available.

Assisted living in the state of Texas averages $38,400 per year. This total includes the housing and the utilities, because assisted living organizations make them inclusive so residents have only one bill to pay monthly. Basic utilities like electricity, gas, water and garbage are normally rolled into the total. The monthly cost may also include additional amenities, like breakfast, lunch and dinner or one or two meals. Each facility has different rules regarding things like meals and cable service. To find out more, inquire about additional services and utilities that are inclusive.

Because assisted living residents can come and go as they please, they’re sure to want to pursue outside activities.
