It seems to me that you should contact social services adult care and tell them that he needs help. When you say "help you out" if you mean financially, then have documentation handy about how much money he's paid so you can say what it was for - his care. But he is likely to need Medicaid soon (after his money is used up either for in-home care, assisted living or a nursing home), and then you may need this documentation.
You may want to try getting in-home help for him, which he will have to pay for. That could work for awhile before you need to look at a nursing home.
