[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If she has run out of her own money, your DH should transfer her to a Medicaid nursing home and have Medicaid pay for it. The one my parent is in is decent and staff deliver meds, 3 meals, a snack, bathe, laundry, and social activities. The facility is a little dated (think Hilton Garden Inn) but the service and care is pretty good. I would not contribute a dime to care because I have my own kids and retirement to worry about.[/quote]

That does not fly in every state. I think Virginia is one where the state will come after adult children to pay for the parents care. [/quote]

No one will come after adult kids except if they stole the money or were gifted a lot.  Even then, they don't as someone stole my MIL money, it was clear, and we reported it to the police, social security and medicaid and they did nothing but help us get the medicaid.[/quote]

Right, they are not going to come after adult children if the parent qualifies for Medicaid. My MIL is in a nursing home in Virginia paid for by Medicaid. [/quote]
