[quote=Anonymous]You might want to find an elder care specialist and pay for a limited consultation to get an objective view of the options. There may be state and/or local assistance that you can tap into - my inlaws have made it through a significant decline and major medical crises largely via state-funded home care aides who come for a few hours a day. It won't last forever but for now it works. Another option as a PP said is an ER trip - it sounds like you don't fully know what has precipitated this major decline in your father's health. Take him in, have him assessed, and then ask to talk to a social worker about options. They can help you navigate some of this.[/quote]
