| Adult day care | $2,058 | $2,058 | 100% |
| Assisted living | $6,250 | $6,200 | 62% |
| Nursing home, semi-private room | $8,365 | $9,581 | 46% |
All Arizona figures are CareScout 2025 medians. Agency rates vary with the hours, the shift length and whether care is overnight.

Licensing for Arizona Home Care Agencies
Arizona does not license agencies that provide only non-medical companion and personal care, so the checks fall to you. Ask for proof of liability insurance, bonding, background checks and caregiver training before anyone comes to the house.
An agency that employs its caregivers handles payroll taxes and workers’ comp. A private hire leaves those duties with the family.
How Arizona Families Pay for In-Home Care
Arizona Long Term Care System (ALTCS)
Arizona Medicaid can pay for personal care at home for people who meet its medical and financial rules; waiting lists are common.
Aid & Attendance
Paid to the veteran or surviving spouse, so it can cover agency caregivers or a person the family hires in Arizona.
Housebound benefit
