Can daughter qualify for benefits for taking care of Mother who is legally blind and hard of hearing?

If your parent can qualify for Medicaid, there are some benefits such as someone coming to the house once in awhile to help for an hour or two. Some States have "Cash and Counseling" programs, so check into that. California does offer some payment for a grown child to do caregiving of their parents. Some States might pay, but the grown child cannot live with the parents, etc. As you can see each State has their own rules and regulations. It doesn't hurt to see what is available.
