Thank you all for your advice, it's very much appreciated! I have a week left before her insurance makes her leave the hospital, so I'm frantically searching for the best options and the best possible care.

She doesn't own any property and the case workers I've spoke with said similar, Black Monsters. Thank you for the details, you were more in depth. They seemed bothered and in a hurry. Our elderly do not receive the care and attention they should.

Thank you everyone else, you've given me an optimistic outlook for the weekend and I hope you all are right and there is much better care today for nursing home residents. This is what it will ultimately come to when I run out of money if she isn't well enough to bring home. But, she's my gram and took me in when no one else would at the age of 15, so I will gladly go broke to help her get home.

She's unable to come home even with a home nurse because of her mental state at the time being. The combination of surgery, stress, and a urinary infection caused some delirium which she's being treated for. The doctors say she could recover from that, but plan for the worst, which I'm forcing myself to do.

Seriously, thank you all for the input, it's a big help and boost in spirit!
