The benefits of in-home care for Massachusetts families
Assisted living in Massachusetts averages around $7,100 a month, among the highest in the country. Keeping a loved one at home is often the more affordable path, and the one most families prefer.
Massachusetts is already feeling the pressure of an aging population. Over 1.8 million residents are 60 or older, and the state's 85-plus population is projected to grow significantly over the next two decades. Demand for elder care is rising fast, and facility availability isn't keeping pace. In-home care gives families a flexible option that doesn't depend on waitlists or facility openings.
