[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP - It is good that your DH is consulting an Eldercare lawyer who can help him and MIL make sound decisions on funding care. At this point, looking at places with a Memory Care program seems like wisest move given the level of 24/7 personal care needed. Such a loss if skills woukd be expected in a Memory setting, but not in AL. In terms o Medicaid, you may want to look at all levels to see how beds are filled when there is an opening — mostly from folks who are already a resident in IL or AL or a person who comes into Memory or nursing as private pay directly? i am not sure is Medicaid pays for memory, so will just say that if assets are limited, looking at the smalller private home care places which accept and seem to provide goof care might be your wisest path to consider. [/quote] Medicaid does not pay Al or il. And at his level he needs memory care. [/quote]
