Frequently Asked Questions

How much does aging in place cost compared to assisted living?

A proactive aging-in-place program like StillWell costs approximately $1,200–$2,400 in year one and ~$588/year ongoing. Assisted living facilities in the St. Louis Metro East typically cost $5,000–$8,000/month ($60,000–$96,000/year). Memory care runs $8,000–$12,000/month. That's a difference of 50–100x.

What is the ROI of fall prevention for seniors?

Research shows that targeted home modifications — grab bars, lighting, accessibility improvements — deliver a 345% ROI over three years. A single set of grab bars ($150–$400) can prevent falls that cost $20,000–$105,000 in medical care. Every dollar spent on prevention saves $28–$133 in potential medical costs.

Does home monitoring really delay facility placement?

Yes. Research indicates that families using passive in-home monitoring delay facility placement by an average of 2–4 years. At $5,000–$8,000/month for assisted living, that represents $120,000–$192,000 in preserved family savings.
