What dementia care costs in India Hook
At the South Carolina median aide wage of $14.48 an hour, 20 hours of help a week comes to about $1,255 a month in wages, which is 23% of the $5,495 monthly median income of India Hook households headed by someone 65 or older. Private rates are agreed directly with the caregiver, so yours may be higher or lower.
