Questions Austin families ask

How much does in-home care cost per hour in Austin?

The 2025 CareScout survey puts the Texas median for a non-medical caregiver at $30 an hour, roughly $5,720 monthly at 44 hours a week. Skilled private duty nursing at home runs about $90 an hour or $150 a visit. Austin rates typically run above statewide medians.

Is adult day care cheaper than assisted living in Austin?

Substantially. The Texas median for adult day health care is $90 a day, about $1,950 monthly, versus $5,666 monthly for assisted living. AGE of Central Texas runs adult day health programs in Central Austin and Round Rock with a nurse on site at all times.

Why is nursing home care listed as cheaper than assisted living in Texas?

The 2025 CareScout survey shows a Texas semi-private nursing median of $185 a day, the lowest in the nation and below the state assisted living median. That figure reflects a heavily Medicaid-weighted nursing market rather than private-pay rates. Expect an Austin private-pay quote to run considerably higher.
