The place she is at led us to believe they could give her all around care with the exception of a full fledged hospital equipment. We understood that, but now they say because of her limited mobility and lift situations they are understaffed. All the "agencies" that pop up online to "help" find you a place I have mixed feelings on their motivations. Who did you find that actually was not biased and if we find a place with a waiting list we want her at, does the place she is staying have a right to kick us out until then. We are in MN. Thanks so much for listening and maybe have advice for me.

Call and see if she can make you a copy of her resources then I'd leave her a little goodie when you pick it up.
If you don't live in a large city, you could just talk to her on the phone and get one or two referrals.
When I was a nurse working in the hospital, the Social Workers were the ones with all the info.
Good luck.
I’ve heard “A Place For Mom” does a good job. There are also private local agencies who will help. If you have someone help you it will make it easier on you. They will be able to find a facility who can handle Mom’s special needs. You don’t have to take their suggestions if you aren’t crazy about the places they find. You have the final say.
As as long as Mom’s bill is paid, I don’t believe they can make her leave. They are aware they can’t meet her needs and wont fault you for finding a place that can.
