FEE STRUCTURE

Because Deerfield is a LifeCare community, an independent resident transferring to the Skilled Nursing Center continues to pay the same monthly rate as in the apartment or cottage. The resident has to pay only for the additional two meals per day during the stay in any level of care in the Deerfield health center and any ancillary health care services not included in the Monthly Fee. Upgraded accommodations in health care are available at an additional charge.

DIRECT ADMISSION TO DEERFIELD’S HEALTH CARE FACILITIES

Deerfield accepts direct admissions into both the Assisted Living center and the Skilled Nursing center, but only if there is space available without jeopardizing the needs of Deerfield’s residents. Such admissions are subject to the current fees for health care and are not qualified for LifeCare. Residents desiring direct admission to the health center follow the stated admissions procedures for applicants for residency.
