Families considering assisted living in Delaware will find themselves in a unique position. Of all its neighboring Northeastern U.S. states, Delaware is one of the smallest in area but also one of the most densely populated, and its residents are never too far from a coastline. Beyond the variety of outdoor recreation provided by the Atlantic shores or Chesapeake and Delaware Bays, Delaware’s largest metropolitan area, Wilmington, is well-connected to other major cities like Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington, D.C. Of course, historic sites are plentiful throughout the state, as Delaware took the lead among colonies signing the U.S. Constitution in 1787 and therefore is known as “The First State.” Retirement in Delaware may mean fewer options for senior living, but opportunities are always nearby.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 15 senior living communities in Delaware that provide assisted living.
The median monthly cost of assisted living in Delaware is about $5,400.

Very caring staff. Location is great. Close to town and beaches. Balconies and a koi pond in the garden area would be a fantastic addition.
Read moreDover Place has been such a positive experience so far, the staff and their care services are a 5 plus. Our loved one is really enjoying the meals, and the activities are wonderful. There is always so much going on, we have been able to see a few of them when we come to visit and they are great. The value seems to be very comparable for everything they have to offer. We used to have a care giver come to our home which our loved one did well with, but now being at a community our loved one is thriving. Having dementia, and being surrounded by others with dementia helps her feel normal, and does not stress her out. The environment is very stimulating, and this is a place you would want to put your loved ones.
Read moreI think that my mom feels safe and there are a lot of activities. They are taking great care of my mother and I would highly recommend this community. They have activities like bingo, chef classes once a month, residents come down for a party all together once a month and they have a really special meal for the residents. There are plenty of activities even a mardi gras celebrations, daily work outs and more for the residents to do to stay busy. This community feels like a village set up and there is a bird area also where the residents can go and watch the birds.
