It is very hard to replicate a nursing home level of care at home. At some point care at home may require the efforts of local and remote family members, plus outside professional caregivers. This can be expensive, plus emotionally and physically draining.

Sometimes you have done everything possible to keep Mom or Dad at home, but the handwriting is on the wall. For whatever reason, care at home is no longer working – it may be time for Mom or Dad to go to the nursing home.

Find the Best Nursing Home

When it comes to providing nursing home-level care at home, the challenges can be overwhelming. Coordinating care among family members, both local and remote, along with hiring professional caregivers, can be financially burdensome and take a toll on emotional and physical well-being. However, there are signs to watch for when in-home care isn't working, and it's important to know what questions to ask doctors and staff to ensure the best possible care. Preventing caregiver burnout is crucial, and making informed decisions based on expert advice and insights from professional caregivers can greatly assist in navigating this challenging journey.

Avoid Gaps in Coverage for Your Loved One

When it comes to Medicaid planning, it is crucial to avoid depleting all liquid assets before starting the process. The consequence of doing so can be a "gap in coverage," which can ultimately lead to a gap in care. And let's face it, nobody can afford to have a gap in care. It's important to consider factors such as prior transfers, an interest in an unprobated estate, owning out-of-state property, promissory notes, mineral rights/royalties, and income-producing property. These factors play a significant role in Medicaid planning and should be carefully considered to ensure a seamless and uninterrupted path to comprehensive care.

Options to Pay for Nursing Home Care

In times of emergency, family members often find themselves unaware of the nature and extent of their parents' assets or their whereabouts. This lack of information leads to "knee-jerk" reactions driven by emotions, which can be incredibly costly for everyone involved.

To avoid such situations, it's essential to understand the available options and make informed decisions. These options include private pay (out-of-pocket), VA assistance, Medicare (limited to rehabilitation services for up to 100 days), selling assets, long-term care insurance, and Medicaid. By familiarizing ourselves with these options and planning ahead, we can ensure that the decisions we make during emergencies are well-informed, cost-effective, and in the best interest of our loved ones.

Asset Preservation

It is crucial to prioritize seniors' quality of life and safeguard their valuable assets for their own benefit and the well-being of future generations. By implementing proactive measures to protect these assets, seniors can experience peace of mind and fully embrace their golden years. Key assets that should be protected include home properties, other land holdings, farm or mineral rights, various investments such as IRAs and 401(k)s, bank accounts, certificates of deposit (CDs), and life insurance policies. By diligently safeguarding these assets, seniors can ensure financial stability, maintain their desired lifestyle, and leave a lasting legacy for their loved ones.
