As families consider options for assisted living, Idaho should be at the top of the list for those looking for a unique geographic blend of dry, desert-like conditions and rugged, snowy wilderness — along with a relatively low cost of living.
Sandwiched between the lush, temperate Pacific Northwest and the snowy peaks of the Rocky Mountains, Idaho truly is truly a hidden gem of the United States. The aptly nicknamed “Gem State” features scenic wonders and untamed natural lands including Craters of the Moon National Monument, City of Rocks National Reserve, and the Frank Church-River of No Return Wilderness Area. Even part of Yellowstone — the country’s first and most well-known national park — spills over from neighboring Wyoming into Idaho’s northeast corner, just below the state’s jagged, mountainous border with Montana. Rivers and waterfalls are also distinguishing features of Idaho, and the Snake River Plain through the state’s central region is home to its most populous cities, like Boise.
Currently, A Place for Mom partners with more than 80 senior living communities in Idaho that provide assisted living.
The median monthly cost of assisted living in Idaho is about $3,500.

My mom lives here and everything is going good so far. She seemed to adjust really fast, too. This was the first place we toured and we just fell in love. My mom likes it and she seems content and happy, which makes me happy. The staff is easy to communicate with, they’re really good if I have any questions or concerns and they listen to me and take care of whatever is going on. I ate one meal with her before she actually moved in and it was okay. I did go to this meal that they held where families could come and eat with the residents. The food was good with that. She tells me that some of the food is good and some of it isn’t so I guess it’s hit or miss. The facility is really good cleanliness wise, it looks nice and clean and smells good. My mom’s room is always nice and clean. They take her laundry and do that, empty her garbage daily, and housekeeping will come by and vacuum once a week. It always looks clean when I go in there. The community offers tons of activities like crafts, manicures, and church services. She’s really getting out and mingling and doing a lot of things that she wouldn’t be able to if she were still at home. She gets help with her medications, which is an extra charge, but everything else has been included in the monthly price, however I think their prices are dependent on the level of care needed.
Read moreWhat really stood out to us initially was the memory care unit, that was a great first impression. We have not been there during a meal time yet so we do not have feedback for that experience but when we do come to visit we see the residents doing activities and different games.
Read moreThis is a small, home like environment. They specialize in memory care and other memory impairments. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the services they provide. The residents are well cared for and clean. The facility is clean and well maintained. We placed our mother here because of the size of the facility, the care and compassion that we experienced when we toured the facility and that same care we received once mom was admitted to the building. During her time there, we know she felt like family and was well loved by all the staff. I would highly recommend this facility to anyone wanting their loved ones treated like family.

Planning ahead can better position you to make good choices for your loved one’s care in the future. But if your aging family member needs care now, there are ways to finance the cost of long-term care through a combination of approaches.
Assisted living is long-term care for seniors who are generally active and independent, but who require increased supervision and help with some daily tasks. Staff can assist residents with activities of daily living like dressing, bathing, and medication management. Assisted living is also a good option for seniors seeking more socialization.
