My 98yr old aunt is living in a assisted living facility. Her pensions are covering those costs but she needs additional care. She has a 24 hr aide who stays with her. The cost for that is over $5000 a month. She does not qualify for hospice and her money is going to run out soon. What should I do?

See if you can move her to next level of care, or nursing home. Then you can get rid of the $5000. a month, and they will take care of that stuff

Even with the increase of cost, it should be less than that

$5000 would be $166 a day and $6.94 per hour. Who are you kidding?

When my mom had a private caregiver for her awake hours in AL we were paying close to $12,000 a month - and like I said, that wasn't even round the clock care.

I thought maybe the extra care was an "add on" by the AL?
