Have you contacted your local Area Agency on Aging? Every county in the US has one. They are often called "Aging and Disability Resource Centers" and act as a clearing house of sorts for all state and federal programs that may be able to assist her. Do a search for Area Agency on Aging in your county. Unfortunately Florida does a very poor job taking care of needy populations. Remember: You vote counts!

Listen to the people who responded above. You will find the right resources. I live in Florida and know the state has excellent resources for the care of people like your daughter.
