How much does home care cost in Salisbury, North Carolina?

In Salisbury, home care costs an average of $30 per hour, according to A Place for Mom’s proprietary data.[01] Salisbury’s average hourly rate is lower than the national average rate of $32. This rate difference is reflective of the city’s cost of living, which is about 10% lower than the national average.[02]

Home care’s pay-by-the-hour model allows families to scale services as needed — from a few hours a week up to 24/7 care. Families often hire part-time home care for around 20 hours per week. Based on the average hourly rate in Salisbury, part-time home care costs $2,514 per month. A full-time home care schedule of about 44 hours per week may be a better fit for seniors who need more assistance, companionship, and supervision. Full-time home care in Salisbury costs about $5,529 per month.

For seniors who need more than part-time care, families may want to consider assisted living, memory care, or a nursing home, which may be more cost-effective than full-time or round-the-clock home care.

How to pay for home care in Salisbury

Families in Salisbury often combine private funds with state or federal programs to pay for in-home care.

Private pay options

Families in Salisbury may rely on:

  • Personal savings and income. Retirement accounts, Social Security, and pensions are commonly used to pay for home care.
  • Long-term care insurance. Depending on the policy, families may be reimbursed for in-home care costs.
  • Life insurance. Certain policies allow families to access benefits early to help pay for care.
  • Home equity. Reverse mortgages or home equity loans can provide additional funds for care.

Medicare

Medicare covers short-term, medically necessary home health services prescribed by a doctor and provided by a Medicare-certified agency. Covered services may include:[03]

  • Skilled nursing care
  • Physical, occupational, and speech therapy
  • Certain medical supplies and equipment

Medicare won’t cover nonmedical home care services, such as personal care or homemaking, unless they’re combined with skilled nursing care.

Medicare resources in Salisbury

Senior residents of Salisbury can contact the Medicare and Seniors’ Health Insurance Information Program (SHIIP) at 855-408-1212 for free, unbiased guidance about Medicare benefits. Additionally, the following local SHIIP resource is available to residents of Rowan County:

For general Medicare help, visit Medicare.gov.

Medicaid

Medicaid can help cover home care services for eligible seniors in Salisbury. North Carolina’s Medicaid program offers several options to support in-home care, including:[04]

  • Personal Care Services (PCS). This program helps with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as bathing, dressing, eating, toileting, and mobility. To qualify, individuals must have a medical condition, disability, or cognitive impairment and demonstrate a need for help with at least two ADLs. An independent assessment determines eligibility and the number of service hours approved.​[05]
  • Home Health Services. Medicaid covers medically necessary services prescribed by a physician, including skilled nursing care, physical therapy, occupational therapy, speech-language pathology, and home health aide services. These services are provided in the individual’s residence and are intended for those who are homebound or have limited mobility.​[06]
  • Community Alternatives Program for Disabled Adults (CAP/DA). This Home- and Community-Based Services (HCBS) waiver program offers a range of services to help individuals who require a nursing facility level of care to remain in their homes. Offerings may include personal care assistance, home modifications, meal delivery, and case management. Enrollment in CAP/DA is limited and there may be a waiting list.[07]

Medicaid resources in Salisbury, NC

North Carolina residents can apply for Medicaid online via ePASS or by calling the NC Medicaid Contact Center at 888-245-0179.

For in-person help with Medicaid, seniors in Rowan County can contact the following county office:

VA benefits

Veterans in Salisbury may qualify for VA programs to help pay for home care, such as:

  • Aid and Attendance (A&A). The Aid and Attendance benefit provides additional monthly payments to eligible wartime veterans and surviving spouses who receive a VA pension and require assistance with daily activities.[08] These funds can be used to pay for in-home care services. To apply, visit VA.gov to download Form 21-2680. The completed form can be uploaded online, mailed, or submitted in person at the nearest regional benefits office in Winston-Salem.
  • Homemaker and Home Health Aide Care. This VA program offers trained professionals to help veterans with daily personal care needs such as bathing, dressing, and meal preparation, allowing them to remain at home. Services are ordered by a VA health care provider and arranged through the local VA medical center. To apply, contact a VA social worker in North Carolina for next steps.[09]
  • Veteran Directed Care (VDC). The VDC program gives eligible veterans control to manage their own care services, including the ability to hire personal care aides and tailor services to individual needs. Enrollment is coordinated through the local VA medical center’s social work department.[10]

Home care is provided by an aide who comes to a senior’s home to help with daily chores and activities of daily living. It can be offered anywhere a senior calls home — including a house, senior apartment, independent living, or assisted living. Learn more about home care.
Home care services are customizable to a senior’s unique needs. Services can include companionship, help with chores like cooking and housekeeping, or assistance with activities of daily living, like toileting and bathing. Explore home care services in more detail.
Home care provides nonmedical services for seniors who require assistance with daily tasks like housework, bathing, dressing, and transportation. In contrast, home health care is prescribed by a doctor and includes services like skilled nursing care and therapies, health monitoring, and medication administration that are provided by licensed medical professionals.
