Should be looking for a facility that accepts Medicare/Mediaid?
Does the Doctor determine if she needs to go to assisted living? Currently she is at the hospital under observation, they are recommending 24/7 care for her. But because she is not an inpatient by Medicare criteria, they can't send her to assisted living under Medicare guidelines? trying to understand all of this.
She doesn't qualify for Medicare funded rehab because she hasn't had a qualifying 3 night admission to a hospital. Can you talk to the discharge planners about next steps?
