Long-term care can be expensive. The cost depends on the amount and type of care you need and where you get it. In 1997, the average cost was more than $46,000 for a year of nursing home care. If a nurse came to your home to give you skilled care three times a week for two hours each visit for the entire year, the bill would be about $19,300. Personal care in your home from a home health aide three times a week for a year, with each visit lasting two hours, would cost you about $10,600. These costs are different across the country.
