Every county has an Area Agency on Aging- suggest Google your's or call the town hall main number. Ask the AAA person for more info on the "Waiver" program. The state receives $$ to pay for home health aide hours for those considered to have or close to having nursing home care needs. The idea is to keep people longer out of a care facility, as almost everyone going in runs out of private funds and converts to Medicaid. The underlying idea is to provide services, especially for people who are in "kin care", to save the state alot
of money, while they are in a safe, supportive environment.
There is a financial qualifier, but why not ask for the information? Nothing ventured, nothing gained.
