About Allison Schneider-Gulledge

As a Senior Living Advisor, I provide a no-cost service to seniors and their families facing the challenges of finding the right senior living options. With more than 40 years’ experience in the healthcare industry and having taken this same journey with my own parents, I have a unique understanding of the challenges seniors and their families face in finding the care that meets their individual needs. As a Triangle resident for more than 35 years, my knowledge of this diverse and growing area makes me a valuable asset. What I do, helping seniors, is not just a profession: it's a passion deeply rooted at the core of who I am.

Unfortunately, the Triangle is the most expensive area in the state for senior living. Independent Living costs start at around $3500 for a small studio and can go up to $8,000 or $9,000 for a large 2-bedroom in a newer community. The average cost is approximately $4,500. Assisted Living can range from $5,500 for a small studio with minimal care to $8,500 – $9,000 for someone requiring significant care, with an average cost of about $6,800. Sharing a room can reduce this cost by a little over a third. Memory Care is typically shared and can range from $6,500 to $12,000,
