  Ahhhh. This is where the "game" gets tricky. I call it the game because if you don't have a lawyer to sort things out you will get burnt. I've had to put both my parents in Nursing Homes and have played the "game" without paying for lawyers. Medicaid does not pay for assisted living, adult homes, rest homes,group homes. Medicaid only pays for nursing homes. The nursing home model is basically a hospital. 24/7 Nursing care. You'll get a bed with a roomate. You get all your meals. Your bed is made daily. People that can still get around and still want to things often don't like being in this setting. My father hated it. He would stay for 30 days and then they discharge him home. I would care for him until he fell yet again, went to the hospital and back to a nursing home. This went on for 2 years until finally I convinced him to stay. There was no other options. There was no money for an adult home or assisted living. He passed away in a nursing home. I know he did not want to be there.
Sorry for the rant but I feel it's important to share my experience with nursing homes.
