Is there financial aid for my mother who can no longer care for herself?

Is there financial aid for our live-in 84 year old mother who has lost her memory and cannot care for herself alone?  If so, where do I go?

EXPERT Carol Bradley Bursack, CDSGF May 2010
Is she on Medicaid? Whether she is or not, I'd go to her state's Web site and look under their version of "aging services." You should find contact information there and options to look into. Most aid is administered locally, even if it's a federal program.

Good luck. This is a frequently asked question. I wish there were one good, positive answer.
