Put her in a "Rehab and Nursing Center".
If she is broke then apply for medicaid, but if you apply for medicaid then do not
transfer any of her property out of her name. Medicaid will claim that property upon
her death, or they will deny coverage because the property was transferred.
If she is going to be long term then medicaid will take her social security check and
give her $60 a month spending money while still in the facility.
In other words, no one will inherit her home, but the medical treatment is free.
If within the last 5 years, her home was sold/transferred or large IRA cashed or
similar financial assets moved, then medicaid will deny coverage for the length of
time of treatment that will total in dollars the value of the sold or transferred assets.
If she is showing signs of dementia then you have no choice, she cannot stay at
home without care.
