[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does he have Medicaid? If so ask for a UAI to be done by the social worker at the hospital. Even if he doesn’t go to the nursing home he can qualify for an attendant at the house. That being said it won’t be 24 hour care, more like 6 or 8 hours per day. Personally I don’t think I could do it. If you did the nursing home you could commit to visiting multiple times per week. Usually the people who get the best care are people with involved families. [/quote] He'd go into a nursing home under medicare for 90 days or what ever the limit is and then while he is there, they'd apply for medicaid. Its far easier to get people into nursing homes directly from the hospital and already there than from home. This is true people do get better care when others are watching.[/quote]
