Miami is a coastal metropolis located at the southern end of Florida’s east coast. It has a population of over 460,000 inhabitants, with residents of 65 years and over making up 16.9 percent of that number. The city’s Health District is a major center for hospitals, clinics and medical research, providing seniors with numerous options for health care. These include Jackson Memorial Hospital, Leonard M. Miller School of Medicine at the University of Miami and Nicklaus Children’s Hospital. Miami has a tropical monsoon climate and residents are able to benefit from warm winters and very warm, humid summers with frequent rain and thunderstorms. Due to the city’s permanent warm temperatures, outdoor activities on its many rivers, marinas, bays and ocean make sailing and fishing very popular pastimes.
Miami’s senior population may need nursing home care at some point in time. Older adults require nursing home placement when they require more medical assistance than assisted living communities can provide. These seniors don’t require hospitalization but aren’t able to live in a residential care facility or in their own homes.
This guide provides information on Miami and nursing care costs in the city, as well as resources available to residents in long-term care communities and their families.
Miami’s SeniorScore is 70, just two points lower than the national average. The city's highest scores are in the Health & Safety and Finances categories. It fared worst in the Recreation & Leisure category, achieving a score of 60.
The city’s Health & Safety score is 65, due to a number of factors including 30 hospitals in close proximity to the city and a large number of Medicare registered physicians. 2,490 pharmacies also make it very convenient for seniors to collect their medications. Large numbers of home health care providers additionally make it easy for older adults to receive the assistance they require.
The Finances category has a score of 64, one point lower than the city’s Health & Safety score. Florida has no income tax, while the national income tax average is 3.38 percent. Its mean household income is also $66,648, higher than the national median of $64,580. The city fares worse with per capita income, recording $23,825 compared with the national average of $25,611. Its overall cost of living is also higher than the national cost and nursing home costs are more expensive in the city, making it harder to afford for seniors on a tight budget. Miami achieved a lower score of 60 in the Recreation & Leisure category. It has 19 parks in and around the city center, 67 golf courses and nearly 200 gyms and health clubs catering to the city’s residents.
The Genworth 2020 Cost of Care Survey calculates the average cost of nursing home care in Miami at $9,095 monthly. This amount is more than $1,000 higher than the national average and several hundred dollars higher than the statewide cost of nursing home care.
Miami’s nursing home care cost is $754 higher than West Palm Beach, a neighboring city just north of Miami, also on the east coast. Cape Coral, located on Florida’s west coast and opposite West Palm Beach also has a monthly average several hundred dollars higher than West Palm Beach’s median. Sarasota, a coastal city north of Cape Coral has a slightly higher nursing home average than Miami of $9,186 per month. Tampa, Sarasota’s neighboring city also located on the state’s west coast, has the highest nursing home care cost in Florida of $9,946. Melbourne, a city directly opposite Tampa on Florida’s east coast, shares the second-highest monthly care cost in Florida with Sarasota. The cities on Florida’s northern border have more affordable monthly averages. Tallahassee, the state capital, has the state’s lowest nursing home care cost of $7,543, while Jacksonville on Florida’s east coast has a monthly median more than $1,000 higher than Tallahassee.

Aging Life Care Association Aging life care professionals are very helpful in assisting seniors in interacting and communicating with their adult children in other parts of the state or country. They also act as liaisons between seniors and the health care system. Life care professionals provide assistance including attending medical appointments with older adults to effectively communicate with medical professionals and inform family members on the results of medical appointments. They also provide guidance in locating the best communities and nursing homes to suit seniors’ needs. 5601 Corporate Way, #404, West Palm Beach, FL 33407 https://www.aginglifecare.org/ALCA/Regional_Chapters/Florida_Chapter/ |
