A: Assisted living centers are designed to meet the needs of those individuals who are having difficulty managing on their own, but do not require the intensive medical services of long-term care in nursing homes. Assisted living is an affordable, residential alternative to traditional institutional care.

Assisted living residents still manage their lives on their own except they may require assistance with daily activities of life. Therefore the assisted living care homes typically provide help with things such as: housekeeping, transportation, toileting, dressing, and cooking.

A: Under the provisions of the Kennedy Kassebaum Act of 1996, much of the cost of assisted living may be tax-deductible to the resident, or to a family member if the resident is a dependent. This act states that the cost of personal care services required by an individual may be tax-deductible if that individual cannot perform at least two activities of daily living, such as dressing, bathing or eating. The services provided must be part of a health care plan prescribed by a licensed health care practitioner. We urge you to consult your tax advisor about this potential financial benefit.
