Construction Cost Estimate for a Nursing Home

RSMeans Quick Cost Estimates

The following analysis estimates the cost to build a nursing home with stucco on concrete block / bearing walls using US National Average costs from 2008 RSMeans cost data. Costs are derived from a building model that assumes basic components, using open shop labor for a 25000 square foot building.

Scope differences and market conditions can cause costs to vary significantly. To see an estimate of the costs to build a nursing home in a specific city or metropolitan area, go to our index of nursing home models by state.

NOTE: This cost estimate uses 2008 RSMeans data. A more accurate estimate using current RSMeans cost data is available on Means CostWorks - our online cost estimating tool.
