One of the most common questions we receive from families in Holladay, Millcreek, Cottonwood Heights, and the Salt Lake Valley is: “How much does assisted living actually cost?”
Costs can vary widely depending on the size of the home, level of care, and whether you use the New Choices Waiver. Here’s a clear, up-to-date breakdown for 2026 to help you plan.
Current Assisted Living Costs in Holladay (April 2026)
At Holladay Home for the Elderly, our all-inclusive monthly rates are:
| Room Type | Monthly Rate |
|---|---|
| Private Room | $4,500 |
| Shared / Semi-Private Room | $3,000 |
These rates include:
- 3 home-cooked meals + snacks every day
- 24-hour awake staff supervision
- Help with bathing, dressing, grooming, and mobility
- Medication reminders and assistance (RN delegation)
- Housekeeping, laundry, and weekly hair styling
- All utilities, Wi-Fi, and basic cable
- Social activities and weekly church services
How the New Choices Waiver Changes the Cost
Many families in our area qualify for the New Choices Waiver. When approved, the waiver helps cover the cost of care, so your out-of-pocket expense is often much lower — sometimes significantly lower than the private-pay rate above.
We work closely with case managers and can review your specific situation during a tour to give you a realistic estimate of what your monthly cost would be with the waiver.
How Our Small Home Compares to Larger Facilities
Larger assisted living communities in the Salt Lake Valley often charge $5,500 – $7,500+ per month for private rooms. Because we are a small 15-resident Type I home, we are able to keep our rates more affordable while still providing high-quality, personalized care.
Other Costs to Consider
- Short-term respite stays: Please call for current rates
- Additional personal items (toiletries, clothing, etc.) are the family’s responsibility
