Generally speaking, assisted living facilities are designed to provide personal assistance to seniors who need some help with daily living tasks. Few, however, also provide financial assistance. Most seniors who choose to live in an assisted living facility must pay personally, and those who can’t afford the costs involved must seek other alternatives.
With so many housing options for those 65 and older, the Illinois Supportive living program is one of our states best kept secrets. Supportive living offers all the assistance of daily living that any typical assisted living community may offer, but with an added value. If a person should ever run out of funds to pay out of pocket, a supportive living community, such as The Pointe, also allows a resident to apply for Medicaid funding to pay for their cost of services. This program prevents a person from ever having to move out due to finances and keeps people out of skilled nursing facilities who do not need that extensive amount of care, even though they lack the funds, to pay for a private pay assisted living community.
