Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.

Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
You can force the sale of the house. He either agrees to the sale or buys you out. Start putting applications in these low income places. You may luck out.
Little, Welcome to the Forum. From your long and complicated profile I will copy/paste this brief first paragraph:
"My roommate and I own the home we live in, equally. We have had many disagreements and as a result, I no longer trust him and do not want to provide him with care. He can be very cruel and abusive, verbally. He does have home nursing and attendant care but needs 24 hour care which they do not provide for him and he cannot afford. This means I have to provide some care for him."
You bought a home with this person; I am assuming therefore that this is more a "partner" (?) than a roommate. Normally people do not purchase homes with roommates/friends. Are you the POA for this person? (I am hoping the answer is no).
The first thing you need to do is see an elder law attorney. Any person owning a home with any other person in most states in the USA can "FORCE A SALE" of said home. This would be a court action; home would be sold. You would divide the assets. You say that the roommate already has assistance; funds from the sale may affect his ability to get these medical aids if they come from Medicaid. They may not. That really is not your problem. You would tell the medical team the date you are leaving. Their social worker would work out next steps for this client of theirs. That's not your problem (unless you are POA).
You describe an abusive person you feel forced to care for in a home you both own. The home should be sold. He can go into care (or not) with his own assets and you can afford to get a rental with yours from the home's profits.
I wish you the best of luck. Speak with an attorney. Now if you truly choose to STAY with this person, who is so disturbing for you to care for, and wish to get paid to do so, that would go according to the laws of your state involving Medicaid. You would need to check on how to apply to do that. You may lose some of the caregivers currently there giving care, so should understand that. Ask the current caregivers, or go to your state's Medicaid site to see about AZ. plans in which caregivers can be paid for inhome care. Good luck.
