Care Facilities
in Mexico
Costs of
Popular Medicines in Chapala, Mexico This is by no means an
exhaustive list on care facilities in Mexico, but it will give you an idea of
what is available. If you are interested in hospitals, clinics, dentists and
emergency services, see below.
Independent Living,
Convalescent Care, Assisted Living Look below for a
variety of care options, from active adults to those with Alzheimers and
dementia problems. You might need wound care, companionship or
assistance after surgery. Or, perhaps you would like to invest in a
community which would allow you to move into continuous care if you
should ever need it.
In-Home Care Options - In addition to assisted living, there are a variety
of in-home care services Lakeside, including registered nurses and trained
caretakers. Some expats make informal private arrangements with a trusted
caregiver. For example, one couple who both have chronic conditions, but are
able to be alone in their home at night. They have a full-time caregiver who for
~$800 USD per month does all of the cooking, cleaning, laundry, shopping,
errands and personal care. (This is not a baseline price, merely an example of
one such arrangement.)
