[quote=Anonymous]If you you think he could be medically eligible for an assisted living I would apply him for the auxiliary grant if you live in Virginia. You can do this for your county's department of family services. All assisted living facilities are required to offer a certain number of units at this reduced rate, currently just under $2,000 a month. My mother also just has social security, and she lives in a beautiful assisted living facility. She pays the majority of her social security and the county makes up the difference. She also qualified for Medicaid which helps with her prescriptions. My sister and I cover her incidental expenses and her Medicare supplement. Your father would need to be deemed both medically and financially eligible, but it sounds like that is likely. We were completely at a loss when my mom started to decline, but there are these services out there. [/quote]
