Oregon home care costs, 2026
In Oregon, a non-medical caregiver runs about $37/hour in 2026 — roughly $7,050/month at a typical 44 hours per week. That's 6% above the national median.
Stay home vs. assisted living in Oregon
At 44 hours of in-home help per week, staying home costs about $84,600/year, vs. $70,800/year for assisted living — assisted living comes in cheaper by $13,800/year, so the home-care decision in Oregon is really about quality of life and family preference, not pure cost.
