For many families, cost is one of the first questions when considering memory care. At Kensington Place Redwood City, we aim to provide clarity, transparency, and support as you plan for your loved one’s next chapter. Here’s what you need to know.
What Influences the Cost of Memory Care?
Memory care communities typically include a bundled rate covering:
- Housing (private or shared suites)
- 24/7 care and supervision
- Meals and nutrition services
- Enrichment programming
- Housekeeping and laundry
- Medication management
Costs may vary depending on:
- The level of care required
- Suite size and layout
- Community amenities and services
All-Inclusive vs. Tiered Pricing
At Kensington Place, we offer an all-inclusive pricing structure that ensures families aren’t surprised by hidden fees. You’ll have predictable monthly costs that include:
- Clinical support (nursing, health monitoring)
- Cognitive programming through Life Enrichment
- Daily assistance with personal care
- Dining that promotes nutrition and dignity
Value Beyond the Basics
Choosing a memory care community isn’t just about affordability—it’s about value. Our pricing reflects:
- Our 24/7 licensed nursing team
- Certified dementia care (Positive Approach to Care®)
- Aging in place without needing to move as care needs increase
This continuity means less stress and fewer disruptions for residents and families.
Comparing Costs to In-Home Care
While in-home care may seem less expensive initially, it often doesn’t include:
- Round-the-clock coverage
- Secure environments to prevent wandering
- Coordinated engagement programs
- Socialization and community connection
When care needs escalate, in-home services can exceed the cost of memory care.
Financial Guidance and Support
Our community team is happy to:
- Help you understand what’s included
- Clarify payment options and timelines
- Discuss long-term care insurance, veterans’ benefits, or bridge programs
Our team supports families every step of the way with compassion and transparency.
