Until earlier this year my mother was living independently in another state. Her health issues landed her in the hospital for an extended stay earlier this year. She has recovered to a level where assisted living can be considered with some extra support with dressing and bathing. I want to try to move her closer for care but because we are not private pay have limited options. As the one advocating for her care, it is very difficult to figure out what to do next or whether she will be cleared for care by any local facilities where I am. I want her to have the best chance for success but be safe as well. The travel back and forth has been difficult and is not sustainable and I just feel I need to physically to keep an eye on her. If anyone has faced a similar situation please share any thoughts that might help me on this journey. Thanks.

Your mother is on Medicaid? Is she home now, or in a care center? You might check out care centers near you that accept Medicaid, to get an idea of what would be available.
