How can I get Alzheimers care for my mom? She’s “too rich” for programs, but not rich enough for private pay.

Alzheimers
tmsullivan asked:


My mom has early onset dementia or Alzheimers. I do not want to put her in a nursing home. There are care facilities near us for $3600-$4200 a month. She has some savings and I’m willing to use them to give her the best care, but the money would run out and then, I’m told, she would have to go to a nursing home in order to get Medicare reimbursement.
