Raven,

Don't just go by what the SW says in the hospital. Call the local elder services in her community, they may be able to give you other options. Its like everything else, you can get someone who will go the extra mile for you or you can get someone that is just filling time.

I don't know where you live but in my state they have a program called elder foster care or something like that(can't remember the actual name.hey I am 51 now!) that will admit someone into an assisted living and use their SS benefits.

Their is also adult Day care if its needed.

Good luck and keep us posted.

Donna
