[quote=Anonymous]OP what about a group home? My birth mother is a paranoid schizophrenic who started hearing voices in college. I don't know her whole story, but she has been in some sort of group home for at least 20 years now. There are medical folks who visit and ensure she takes her medications. She was still independent, not under guardianship, until recently when hospitalized for a separate issue and went under financial guarsianship because she wouldn't leave the apartment to fo to the bank for money for food and other items. Now someone sends her groceries with her own money. I don't know how the group home is funded, however... She does pay rent, she perhaps is on Medicaid and may have money from her mother who was well off, but estranged from her...not sure The group home is not perfect, she has dealt with roommate issues and bed bugs. But it does mean she is not on the street and has someone checking in on her.[/quote]
