Overview of assisted living in Nevada

Assisted living is a great option for Nevada seniors who need assistance with their activities of daily living (ADLs), such as bathing or grooming. It’s also a great option for those who enjoy a social environment. In Nevada, the average cost of assisted living is approximately $5,200 per month or $62,400 per year.[01] Assisted living tends to be more expensive than independent living, since it includes care services. But general assisted living is slightly less expensive than a specialized memory care community.

Cost of assisted living in Nevada

According to A Place for Mom’s proprietary data, the average cost of assisted living across our partnered communities is $5,200 per month. This reflects the actual costs paid by seniors and their families upon moving into our partner communities. Nevada’s average price is in line with the national average of $5,200. However, actual costs can range from $4,000 to $6,500 per month.[01]

A number of factors may affect the cost of assisted living, including the following:

  •  The community’s pricing model
  •  Your loved one’s level of care
  •  The community’s location
  •  Room size and layout
  •  Optional amenities and services

It’s not unusual for a senior to use multiple payment methods to pay for assisted living. Medicare and Medicaid may also help to cover the medical aspect of their care to reduce their overall monthly bill.

Paying for assisted living in Nevada

When considering how to pay for assisted living, it’s important to realize that early planning will allow for more options and flexibility. Many seniors use a mix of private pay options and public assistance. For some payment options, such as Medicaid, there may be a waiting period before benefits take effect. For an in-depth look at different payment options, visit our complete guide to paying for long-term care.

Private pay options include any asset a senior has that can be put towards paying for assisted living. These range from savings accounts to insurance policies.

Assisted living requirements and regulations in Nevada

Assisted living communities in Nevada are licensed through the Division of Public and Behavioral Health, Bureau of Health Care Quality and Compliance. Assisted living communities must provide assistance with activities of daily living, and the community administrator must see that every resident receives an annual physical exam and care assessment. In Nevada, seniors who live in an assisted living community may receive third-party home health care from outside agencies. However, they can’t live in a community if they require long-term skilled nursing care.[02]

Nevada doesn’t mandate a specific caregiver to resident ratio, but the state does require that communities with more than 20 residents have one staff member who is awake round-the-clock. In order for a community to become licensed, they must pass an inspection conducted by the state fire marshal. To look up a community’s license and any reports, visit the Nevada Division of Public and Behavioral Health.

How we rank Nevada’s regulations and records system

We developed a system to rate each state on how easy — or difficult — it is to find important assisted living records and reports, and compiled tips to help you in your search.

States with the most transparent records allow you to look up important information about each assisted living facility online, including inspections, complaints, survey results, violations, capacity, and whether the facility accepts Medicaid.

Access to Nevada assisted living records: Exceptional

Public access to assisted living records and reports for the state of Nevada is exceptional. Key findings that informed this rating include:

  • Nevada recently updated their state database to include detailed information about adult care providers.
  • Nevada has a letter grading system used for facility inspections.

How to look up Nevada assisted living licenses and records

  • To locate licensed facilities and learn about the background of a community use Nevada’s DHHS Provider Search Form.
  • Under the “Business Unit” dropdown menu you can choose to enter a specific facility name, a city, zip code, or a phone number to find providers.
  • Choose “View Detail” in the search results to learn more about the background of a provider.

How we arrived at our Nevada rating

We developed a standard methodology for state data collection and evaluation, and based our rating primarily on the objective, state-specific accessibility criteria outlined in these questions:

  1. Are licensed assisted living communities listed online in any form? Yes
  2. If Yes to #1, is the information updated frequently? Yes
  3. If Yes to #1, is the list of licensed communities searchable? Yes
  4. Does the state post inspections, complaints, survey results, or violations online? Yes
  5. If Yes to #4, is the information updated frequently (within 90 days)? Yes
  6. If Yes to #2 and #4, is the enforcement information included in the same place as licensed communities? Yes
  7. If Yes to #4 and No to #6, are violations / inspections searchable at all? Yes
  8. Is information about special licensing for care shown? No
  9. Capacity shown? Yes
  10. Payment types shown, [e.g. Medicaid, private pay]? No
  11. Administrator / Contact name shown? Yes
  12. State may fine facility? Yes
  13. Frequency of inspections? Every 12 months
  14. Website includes pricing of facility? No
