[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some states do pay for caregivers. I think they need a foreign workers program for nursing care.[/quote] This. In some jurisdictions, I believe DC is one, family members can get some payment as at home caregivers. That doesn't help OP re: wanting to put her mom in memory care though. Many foreign workers DO fill these positions, in FL for example, there are many caregivers, and nurses from Jamaica, Haiti and the Philippines. OP, I think you will have to look into [b]Medicare facilities [/b]and educate yourself re: spend down. Consulting an elder care lawyer is wise. If you have kids, there may begin to be safety issues re: Alzheimer's, imo experience rage, elopement, starting fires, etc. [/quote] Medicaid? [/quote]
