By skyforbes Subject says it all. Newbie here trying to wade through the bureaucratic system of getting my disabled elderly mother into a nursing home with a zero share of cost MediCal (Partnership) while everyone I meet gives me conflicting information. Has anyone successfully gotten through the hoops?
I have found nursing homes that accept MediCal but now I’m confused on the process of getting her on a waitlist or enrolled at the facility. She ended up in the hospital for a week and a half so that qualified her for the hospital to send her to a short term facility, which she will be at for 20 days. We told the hospital we needed long term care, but somehow this is where we ended up at. Now she is in a care center/rural hospital that has 8 short term nursing beds; should I speak with the social worker at this hospital? I keep getting extremely conflicting information from people that don’t seem like they want to do their jobs.
Also, APS knows that there is no one to take care of her at home since my dad ‘s health has rapidly declined but they were little to no use.
