If your spouse or loved one can no longer live at home safely, you may have no choice but to place them in some sort of communal living. This can actually be of benefit to the elder who may benefit from the socialization and the hands on care.
But what about the cost of a Nursing Home? Every day people in Broward and Palm Beach Counties go broke paying for this care. Sometimes they must even sell the family home and spend it down. This is because they have been told that they must be out of money before they can get any government help.
We know better. You would not ask the Internal Revenue Service to do your tax returns, would you? They know all the deductions but will they tell you? Should a nursing home be an expert in qualifying for Medicaid or Veteran’s benefits? If they are, are they spending their time caring for your loved one?

The rules of Medicaid and Veteran’s benefits are nearly impossible for the layperson to understand.
