My spouse has Parkinson’s disease. If the disease progresses to the point where I can no longer care for him, what will determine if he goes to assisted living vs. nursing home care? We have worked with an attorney to plan for nursing home care, but I am concerned that, if he is not eligible for nursing home care, then he will need to go to assisted living - and there is no coverage for assisted living.
Lets say that he is no longer ambulatory and I am not strong enough to lift him (like from bed to a wheelchair or shower or toilet), but he does not require a feeding tube, ventilator, or pic line, then what are my options?
