My grandma has lewy body dementia. My mom does not work. We are considering moving grandma into the 3rd bedroom of our apartment and caring for her ourselves. She currently lives in a nursing home and cannot move by herself. Is it legal to move her into the apartment with us?
You state that your Grandmother "cannot move by herself". If she is receiving Hospice, does that mean that she is in bed all of the time or does she get up in a wheelchair during the day? Can your Grandmother feed herself, propel her wheelchair, use a TV remote, use a phone, etc.
Have you thought of all of the equipment that you will need to rent or buy for your Grandmother to safely and comfortably live in your apartment, such as: a hospital bed, a commode chair, bedpan, wheelchair, etc.
We need more information as to why you and your Mom want to move your Grandmother from the Nursing Home where she is receiving HOSPICE and into your apartment so that we can offer more appropriate suggestions.
