Yeah my mom had that problem but I've never heard of partial. If she has partial have you checked with them to see if they will pay for an all night care giver?

I guess I just want to know where/if I can find all night care for her in my home. It seemed impossible in Charlotte to keep anyone.Shes in Brighton Gardens there and so unhappy, I want to get her out.

Why don't you tell a little of your story for everyone on the site to see. You'll find the help you need here for sure though. Have you looked at some of the other threads.

How long has she been there and where are you in regards to her location, and your siblings how did they get her to a NH if they are out of state and you were there with her?

Thats just it, my older sisters,who are always in charge,pay Brighton Gardens 5,000 a month, my moms money for assisted living.We all adore mom, but she and I had someting special.I want to change my garage and add her bathroom that she needs. But Im the 52 yr old baby that doesnt know anything. Even though I took care of my son with a brain tumor and my husband dying of lung cancer. Can you tell Im getting angry? :)

Wow, we pay 3200.00 here in Oregon for asst.living for my mother-in-law, and I thought that was a little high. I guess it's all 'relative'. I'd also suggest checking into an adult foster care situation. We had my father-in-law there for a few months before he died. They were wonderful people (Romanian) and it was cheaper. I will admit though, the asst. living place that she is in goes by points. M-I-L may not be using as many points as your mom. That would account for the price difference I guess.
