Cost

What stroke recovery support costs in Las Vegas

At the Nevada median aide wage of $16.19 an hour, 20 hours of help a week comes to about $1,403 a month in wages, which is 30% of the $4,663 monthly median income of Las Vegas households headed by someone 65 or older. Private rates are agreed directly with the caregiver, so yours may be higher or lower. Nevada's minimum wage is $12.00 an hour (U.S. Department of Labor table, updated July 1, 2026).

Hiring directly, you agree the rate with the caregiver and usually become the household employer (U.S. Department of Labor rules). Some families qualify for programs that pay for care at home; see Medicaid programs for family caregivers: who can be paid, and the rules in 12 states.
