How It Works
You pay a one-time entrance fee based on the size of the residence you choose and the number of occupants. Payment of this fee entitles you to use of your residence and priority access to on-site skilled nursing care. If you access our skilled nursing care, your monthly fee changes to the health center fee, which is a predictable cost well below market rates for skilled nursing in Palm Beach County. You’ll know where you’ll receive care and how much it will cost. It’s that simple and that comprehensive.
Plus, part of your entrance fee and ongoing monthly fees may be tax-deductible, and a portion of your entrance fee will always be refundable to you or your estate. As with any financial decision, we recommend you consult your tax adviser about possible tax deductions with Life Care.
So why does choosing Abbey Delray South matter? Because Life Care gives you the confidence to live a rich life, full of new opportunities and a lot less to worry about.
