The decision to move yourself, a family member, or a loved one into a
nursing home is one of the most difficult decisions you can make.
Perhaps the move is being made because your family member can no longer care
for himself or herself. or has a progressive disease like Alzheimer's. or
has had a stroke or heart attack.
No matter the reason, those involved are almost always under great stress.
At times like these, it's important that you pause, take a deep breath and
understand that there are things you can do. Good information is available
and you can make the right choices for you and your loved one.
This Consumer's Guide to Medi-Cal Planning and Division of Assets is
designed to help provide you with information and answers to some of the
questions you will encounter. These are questions which we, as Elder Law
attorneys and nursing home rights advocates, deal with on a daily basis.
Our clients have found this guide to be a valuable resource, and we hope you
will find it useful too.
