They are very young (66), and recovering from cognition deficit. Being the youngest among much older folks, some with dementia, mentally ill, severe medical cases, my L.O. won’t return to her apt. Is there a “younger” Medicaid type home in MA? Still in a wheelchair, smart, with it, just logical reasoning is off. Doesn’t want to be “stuck” here, yet still needs to get better cognitively first, and more practice on her walker.
If LO has cognitive decline at 67 (in profile) I doubt if LO will get any better. The only time I have heard of someone getting better was someone who was on a medication causing the problem. Once taken off, they were better. Finding a LTC facility with younger crowd would probably be impossible. Having Dementia at 67 is not uncommon but not common enough to have a facility for just that age group. Also, probably not cost effective.
She could be eligible for SSDI. I would connect her with a social worker to answer your questions. If she really isn't capable of taking good care of herself since her logical reasoning is "off"... then she should really have a legal representative. A judge can assign a 3rd party guardian that will work on her behalf.
