Your estimated weekly cost is $0 and monthly cost is $0. Consider adjusting the hours of care or level of service to modify these estimates.
The cost is determined by an effective hourly rate, which considers the base service rate, location, and any additional services. This rate is then used to calculate weekly and monthly costs.
effective_hourly_rate = (base_rate × location_multiplier) + add_on_rate OR custom_rate if provided; weekly_cost = hours_per_week × effective_hourly_rate; monthly_cost = weekly_cost × 4.333;
Example: 20 hours/week, Skilled care ($35/hr), Suburban location (×1.00 multiplier), add-ons ($5/hr).

Base rates vary by service type (e.g., skilled nursing, personal care) and the aide's qualifications.
Urban areas typically have higher costs due to increased demand and living expenses, reflected in the location multiplier.
