VA benefits for assisted living in Las Vegas, Nevada

Veterans in Las Vegas have several housing resources to explore through the Nevada Department of Veterans Services (NDVS), like grants, advocacy, housing assistance, and long-term health care resources. The veterans department also offers the Nevada Transition Assistance Program (NVTAP) — which helps connect veterans and their families to benefits and services. Whether at the state or federal level, veteran seniors can find assistance and benefit opportunities in Las Vegas, Nevada. 

At the federal level, the Veteran Aid and Attendance program provides monthly supplemental income to eligible veterans who require long-term care in assisted living and other care facilities. Surviving spouses may also be eligible for this program.

Las Vegas, Nevada, Medicaid for assisted living

Nevada Medicaid is the state’s program that provides health care insurance to the low-income residents of Las Vegas. To be eligible for Medicaid, an individual needs to meet certain income and health requirements. Though Medicaid programs do not typically cover rent at an assisted living facility, some care services may be covered through senior-specific waiver programs or Long Term Services and Support waiver programs.

One senior-specific program is the Aging and Disability Services Division (ADSD) Assisted Living Waiver. This waiver program covers the costs of personal care services, such as assistance with feeding and personal hygiene, and case management services. To be eligible for the Assisted Living Waiver, the senior must meet the following criteria:

  • Meet income requirements
  • Be at least 65 years old
  • Live in an assisted living facility that gets the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit
  • Live in a facility that offers 24-hour supervision and care, in addition to sleeping areas, private bathrooms, kitchenettes, and separate living rooms
  • Be at risk for placement in a nursing institution if they don’t receive personal care services

Seniors have another public pay option available for assisted living in Nevada under the Medicaid Frail Elderly Waiver program. This waiver from the Nevada Aging and Disability Services Division may cover some assisted living services, including a range of specialized personal care from limited assistance to constant supervision.[04] To qualify, seniors must meet the following:

  • Be 65+ years of age
  • Live in a licensed group residential facility
  • Be at risk for placement in a nursing institution if they don’t receive services
  • Certain income requirements

There’s also an additional waiver in the state of Nevada that covers assisted living specifically, known as the Home and Community-Based Services Waiver for Persons with Physical Disabilities Waiver program.[03] To qualify, seniors must meet the following requirements:

  • Have a physical disability diagnosis
  • Certain income requirements
  • Be at risk for placement in a nursing institution if they don’t receive services

Medicare assisted living coverage in Las Vegas, Nevada

As a federal program that only covers medical expenses for seniors 65 years and older, Medicare does not cover rent at an assisted living facility. However, seniors still have options under Medicare to cover some medical-related care costs or health care services in an approved assisted living facility. The following are some Medicare options to help seniors cover some long-term care costs:   

  • The Nevada SHIP program, or State Health Insurance Assistance Program, can help seniors by providing services such as Medicare eligibility information, counseling for long-term care insurance decisions, referrals, and advocacy.  
  • Qualifying Nevada seniors can also take advantage of the state’s pharmaceutical assistance programs. The Senior Rx Program provides assistance to low-income seniors, and the Nevada Medication Assistance Program (NMAP) provides assistance to people with HIV/AIDS.  
  • The Medicare Part D Prescription Drug Plan also helps seniors pay for their prescriptions. Seniors with Medicare coverage can purchase this additional plan to help pay for prescribed medications. 
  • The Medicare Advantage Plans (Part C) in Nevada is available to seniors already enrolled in Medicare Part A and B. Part C combines both Part A and Part B of Medicare in one form of coverage.
  • Nevada also has Medicare Savings Programs that can cover copayments and deductibles from Medicare Part A and Part B. Contact the Nevada Department of Health and Human Services to learn more and apply for a Medicare Savings Program.

Understand Nevada laws and regulations for assisted living facilities

Learning about Nevada’s assisted living regulations is an important step to make when choosing a community. The information below will help you find licensed assisted living facilities in Nevada that adhere to local laws and can meet you or your loved one’s needs.  

Licensing and grading system 

Assisted living facilities in Nevada must be licensed under the category of “Residential Facilities for Groups” by the Bureau of Health Care Quality and Compliance (HCQC) in order to provide qualified care and assistance to seniors. This helpful fact sheet on Residential Facilities for Groups outlines the standards of these assisted living communities in Nevada, as defined by the HCQC.  

Nevada’s Division of Public and Behavioral Health ranks residential facilities with an inspection-based grading system. During the inspections, deficiencies such as safety and staffing concerns are noted.   

  • An assisted living facility with an “A” grade has either minimal or no deficiencies.  
  • Those with a “B” grade have multiple deficiencies or issues with their administration that may cause harm to residents if left unaddressed.  
  • To earn a “C” or “D” grade, an assisted living facility must have several issues with their administration, deficiencies that have already caused harm to its residents, or both. After receiving a “C” or “D” grade, the facility must be re-inspected until it receives an “A” or “B” grade.  

To make sure each assisted living facility in Nevada complies with each of these regulations, inspections are done by the Health Division of the HCQC before the facility is officially licensed, when there’s a complaint about the facility, and during the annual licensed term. These assisted living inspection reports and licensing information are available to the public via Nevada’s Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) Provider Search Form. To navigate this search form, select “Health Facilities” under the Business Unit search criteria, select “Residential Facility for Groups” under the Credential Type criteria, then enter the name and the address of the facility which you would like to look up. 

Residential support requirements 

Residential facilities for seniors must function in a way that meets a senior’s evolving needs — so that the need for moving to another care facility is minimized. These facilities are also required to foster their residents’ independence. Therefore, assisted living facilities in Nevada are not allowed to admit residents that are bedridden, require restraint, or require 24-hour skilled nursing care, unless the senior qualifies for HCQC-approved hospice care.[04]  

Room requirements 

Rooms in assisted living facilities must be at least 80 square feet for a private room, and there must be at least 60 square feet of floor space per resident in a shared room. Shared rooms can house a maximum of three residents.[02] 

Caregiving staff 

Nevada assisted living facilities with over 20 residents need at least one employee on site who is awake at all times, but there are no required staff ratios. Assisted living caregiving staff must be at least 18 years old and have the ability to complete CPR and first aid. They must also have at least 4 hours of other care-related training. If an assisted living facility also provides memory care, each employee must receive and complete a minimum of 8 hours of training for general and emergency care related to Alzheimer’s disease and other forms of dementia.[02] 

COVID-19 regulations for Las Vegas, Nevada, assisted living facilities

Nevada’s Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) recommends that assisted living facilities have a COVID-19 prevention and control plan. The DHHS recognizes that seniors in assisted living facilities face a higher risk of COVID-19 exposure due to close contact with other seniors. So they’ve provided guidance on disease control best practices for these facilities:

  • Quarantine residents for 14 days if there are suspected symptoms or a positive COVID-19 test result.
  • Communicate to residents and families that outdoor visits are preferred.
  • Continue group activities while adhering to hand-washing, mask-wearing, and social distancing practices.

At the state level, the mask mandate was lifted in the beginning of 2022. However, individual organizations and businesses are able to enforce their own mask policies. Nevada also added more COVID-19 testing locations.

Some age-in-place communities offer a range of care types all on one campus, from independent living to rehabilitative and memory care services.[05] This flexibility of care types on one campus enables a community to meet the evolving needs of Las Vegas seniors, so they don’t have to worry about moving to another facility if their care needs grow.
