<prompt> Human: This is a repost of what my dad posted, He signed up for reddit yesterday posted here and got no help, So I figured Id try.I am looking for some financial and insurance advise as my mom had a stroke last Wednesday. Ive already heard a lot of information from doctors and the case worker, but my concerns are after her 3-4 weeks of acute care at the rehab center where do I turn. She will definitely need 24 hour care for at least 3 more months and I do not have power of attorney and they are already telling me that I will have to get a reverse mortgage on her house to pay for additional care. I really a novice at all of this and Ive heard so much that I dont know where to turn. Any advise would be greatly appreciated.ThanksAssistant: Who does have power over attorney for gma? Has her stroke impaired her mental faculties so shes not able to make decisions?Check if shes eligible for Medicaid google state in which she resides plus healthcare marketplace. Unfortunately you will have to dig up some income information for this, so if someone can go to her home and find this tax information that would be good.Human: Thank you for your comment! My dad is stressing out over this and other health related issues so any input really helps. Thats one thing they were telling him, that he might have to reverse mortgage her house to pay for 24hr care. I will let him know to not do that and look more into medicaid. Right now she has no will and her current mental heath cant allow for her to sign any papers or agree with understanding of whats going on. My dad is the only sibling and the last in the family, so its all on him.  <response>: if youre more internet savvy than your dad, you can help him with this. 1 contact the hospital social worker. Ask if them to connect you with someone who can check if shes medicaid eligible its possible to be eligible for both medicaid and medicare. 2 does someone have a key to grandmas place and can try to find her tax returns? this can help3 if you absoultely cannot afford a lawyer, google the probate court as i mentioned and dad should get started with filing for conservatorshipalso consider contacting an elder care nonprofit in your area, they may have additional advice
