FAQs

What are FAQs?

FAQs stand for "Frequently Asked Questions". They are a list of common questions and their corresponding answers that are provided to help people quickly find the information they need. FAQs are often used on websites, product manuals, or other informational resources to address the most common questions or concerns that people may have about a particular topic or product. They can be a useful tool for providing quick and easy access to information, and can save time by reducing the need for people to contact customer support or search for answers themselves. 


What is your response to COVID-19?

First and foremost, our top priority is the health and safety of our Residents and team. The Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) is a pandemic and public health matter. We are closely monitoring the rolling recommendations from the World Health Organization (WHO), Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), American Health Care Association (AHCA), National Center For Assisted Living (NCAL), North Carolina Department of Health and Human Services (NCDHHS), Mecklenburg County Health Department, and other health care facilities. 


For more information view our COVID-19 Information and Safety Guidelines, and CDC COVID-19 FAQs. 



What is the difference between Assisted Living and Nursing Homes?

Assisted Living promotes independence in a home-like setting and offers assistance with activities of daily living (ADL) like eating, bathing, dressing, grooming, toileting, transferring, and continence. Evening care and medication monitoring are also offered by caregivers. An individual's ADL performance is an important determining factor to gauge when and what type of long-term care is needed. 


Nursing homes take care of people who are unable to perform most ADLs, or are sick and need round-the-clock skilled nursing care. Most nursing homes are in an institutionalized setting and are not conducive to encouraging independence. 



Do you offer 24-hour continuous nursing care?

No. We have a written agreement with a licensed home care agency that provides 24-hour professional staffing to assist our residents with personal care services on a daily, emergency, odd hours, and/or as-needed basis. We do not offer continuous (non-stop) personal care services. Nursing facilities offer 24-hour continuous care. 



Is it time to consider moving into an assisted living home?

Assisted living cost can be expensive. However, if six or more hours of daily personal care services are required, assisted living may be the most affordable option to meet your personal care needs. Plus, here are several more reasons to consider assisted living:


  • Cognitive decline or memory loss has reached a point that causes safety issues or concerns.
  • Unable to perform activities of daily living without help from others.
  • Physically or mentally unable to clean your home.
  • Help is required to prepare meals, do laundry, run errands, schedule appointments, transport and assit you to medical appointments, etc. 
  • Medication is not being taking as scheduled.
  • It is no longer safe to live alone, and you want someone to be nearby or check on you regularly, multiple times a day and at night.
  • You desire the company of others to communicate and stay socially active and engaged.



When is it time to consider assisted living for my loved one?

The challenges of caring for a loved one can be overwhelming for someone with many obligations, responsibilities, or inability to provide the level of required assistance on a daily basis. When there is not enough time in a day to properly get things done for yourself and everyone else, you may neglect your own personal care and fall short at providing the best care for your loved one. This is usually when it is time to consider assisted living.


Remember that Superman and Superwoman are fictional characters. It is ok to receive assistance, and our caring and knowledgeable team will be there to answer any questions and help make the transition as smooth as possible.

What is the cost?

In-home personal care services can be very expensive especially when additional time is needed on a more frequent basis. In Charlotte NC, the median home health aide/caregiver services cost is $25.00 hourly (or $150 for 6 hours of daily personal care services) and $4,910 monthly, according to 2022 Cost of Care Survey (calculated future cost) by Genworth.com. The local median cost of assisted living is $4,532 monthly (plus the cost of care). 


CoHomes rates start at $3,400 monthly (plus the cost of care). Our rate is less than the cost of a one night stay at most nearby hotels. If a senior is currently paying for a mortgage/rent, utilities, food, housekeeping, etc. and requires 6 or more hours of daily personal care assistance, it will likely cost more for them to stay at home with a part-time caregiver compared to being a resident at CoHomes with 24-hour staffing provided by a licensed home care agency. Plus, we offer short-term stays starting at $195 per day. A five-day minimum stay is required. (Limited openings, please call for availability.)


Also, hospital beds are usually preferred after a hospital stay or due to certain health conditions. Hospital beds usually rent for up to $500 a month plus the cost of delivery. Our hospital bed is available for rent, based on availability, for $10 per day.


Contact us at (704) 272-1777 for more information or to arrange an assessment to determine the exact rate for your loved one.



What payment options are available?

We accept private pay only. Residents may use funds from savings, retirement accounts, pensions, social security, long-term care insurance, veteran's benefits, family contributions, and other financial sources. Many families are surprised and disappointed to learn that Medicare does not pay for senior housing or assisted living. 


In addition, many people are unaware that some related costs may be tax-deductible (check with your accountant or financial advisor).  


Contact us at (704) 272-1777 for more information about our amenities, services, and costs.
