Trying to move my brother from Brownsville,TX to No. TX around Dallas, or a county close to Anna,TX. He has been in a Type B assisted living for 5 yrs. 80% disable, on medicaid, 66 yrs old, a place where I at least can visit him once a week or more. When your in this condition your family forgets to visit you. It's hard for them to make time for you with their active lives and other family matters. Any help out there will be accepted. Thank You.
The number for the AAA is: (800) 272-3921
Good luck!
It's unfortunate that many assisted living facilities don't accept Medicaid, so this will be a challenge. Try looking for AL facilities near you and note their Zip codes. Then go to www.ltcombudsman.org and type in the Zip codes of the homes you want to look at - one at a time. These long-term care ombudsmen are the people's representatives. When you find contact links, email (or call them if they give a phone number) and tell them what you need. This will take work, but you may find something.
Good luck,
Carol
