How would my sister qualify for your facility or any other assisted facility?
Medicaid. My sister had a stoke 5 yrs ago. She has left her boyfriend & needs to be in a assisted living. She needs help with dressing & eating. She cannot see very well either. How would she qualify for your facility or any other assisted facility?
Rockcad, please note that Aging Care is an information only website where caregivers ask questions and share information. Sorry, there is no facility.
You mentioned Medicaid. Most Assisted Living facilities are self-paid, and some States have Assisted Living waivers where your sister would pay up to a certain amount and Medicaid would cover the balance.
Otherwise, it sounds like your sister would need the care of a nursing home. She would need to qualify for Medicaid. Medicaid would cover all of her cost. Each State is different so you would need to gather information from your sister's State Medicaid office.
