I called about home care some years ago and they said --at that time--anyone who has an income of more than $40,000 a year cannot get any assistance--has that changed? I certainly agree it would save the government a lot of money to allow people to stay at home instead of going to a Nursing Facility--no matter what their yearly income was . The initial cost of a Nursing Home covers only the room, once a week room cleaning and food that is $75,000 a year---everything else is extra and so it really adds up to closer to $90,000 a year when and if you need personal laundry done--medication given--showers or bath help-- dressing assistance et et et. It adds up quickly. $250.00 a month for each extra service. But home care is a flat fee of $25,000 - $35,000 a year. So, a big savings. Are the forms on the download?
