Over the span of two decades author, columnist and speaker Carol Bradley Bursack cared for a neighbor and six elderly family members.

Some assisted living centers may be able to help him, but likely he needs more nursing care than that. Many nursing homes have younger people who need help. You could investigate the local options. At the very least, look into getting in-home help. He's likely on disability, so there should be some funding through that for some care.
