My Mother is in a memory care nursing home in VT and my sister has guardianship. I live in Texas and am thinking about bringing my mom into our home thinking she will thrive better in a family setting. How easy is it to get guardianship in Texas? If my wife quits her job to stay with her is she able to get compensated through my mother?
You need a private adult care home that is close to you. These are family homes with CNAs and care providers and usually 5 or fewer residents. They provide assistance with ADLs and loving care. They are less expensive and so much better in every way than facilities. They go by many names: resident home, care homes, senior homes, private adult care homes. Your state dept of aging may have some listings as well as city or county senior offices or social work offices. Good luck!
