What can I do if someone is coming home after being hospitalized for a broken hip and needs therapy and care?

I am assuming the person is refusing Rehab. If you can't physically care for this person, tell the Social Worker they can't come home. Medicare will pay the first 20 days 100%.

Who is "they". No one can garnish without a court order. And if garnishing it is for an old debt.

Need more info.

Is she still in the hospital?? I hope so because you need to VERY firmly state that you can provide this level of care at home. No way, no how. She needs to be in a rehab facility. How many nights did she spend in the hospital? How old is she?

If she needs a hoyer lift, she should not be coming home. When my mom had knee replacements, I said she needed to be able to get into the house and walk the distance from her bedroom to the bathroom without assistance. Then and only then could she come back to my house. You do not want a bedbound person being 100% dependent upon you for EVERYTHING. It's just waaaay too much.

Something is missing here. Please provide more details on the finances, specifically how are they garnishing her savings? Medicare will cover some of the rehabilitation costs, has she used up her allotted Medicare? If it is not safe and there is insufficient coverage at home, the case manager should know that, what is their care plan for her at home? What did the social worker and case manager say?

"I am caring for my mother, living at home with age-related decline, anxiety, arthritis, depression, heart disease, lung disease, mobility problems, osteoporosis, urinary tract infection, and vision problems."

Sounds like her care is way beyond you now.

Tell us more, and we can help you develop a plan.

You shouldn't take her home. Her care is way beyond what you will be able to do. I don't know who told you that she doesn't have dementia and "she just forgets sometimes." That describes dementia. Maybe early dementia, but once they start forgetting sometimes, it only gets worse.

If you need a Hoyer Lift it does not sound like she is ready to be discharged to home.
A Hoyer Lift "technically" should have 2 people operating it. (although in the home it can be done with 1 person but they can be unwieldly and until you are used to it 1 person is a little "iffy")
She should go to inpatient rehab
The hospital bed can be ordered by her doctor. the Hoyer lift should also be provided by Dr order but again I stress that it is not an easy piece of equipment to use right off the bat.

"But will not have more therapy".

Why not? Is this a funding issue? Pain? Behaviour/lack of cooperation/cognition issues?

What is the expected outcome, or expected mobility as advised by the Physiotherapist? Has the PT recommended hoist transfer? Why?

I would think in-patient rehab would be the plan if she is not suitable for home-with-visiting-Physio.

If you cannot care for her or it is unsafe, then please tell the social worker to help plan for Medicaid. She should qualify for nursing home care, which can be stopped if she gets better. The downside will be that they will keep her SSDI except for maybe $40 for personal things. This will cut into you. Can you go back to work? Can you take in a renter? You should contact the local counsil on aging as suggested for more options.

Medicare/private insurance might pay for skilled nursing at home if her primary care physician orders it. Is she on medicaid?

Contact your local area's Agency on Aging, or social services for her county. If her doctor recommends her for LTC then she can apply for Medicaid (most states' Medicaid only pays for LTC but a few states will cover other care so research it for her state).

The nursing home is charging for her fees. She is expected to pay for her care. Try social services in your county to see if there are resources to help with rent and bills. Look into Medicaid to pay for her nursing home. Medicare may pay or bed and hoyer lift. See if she is eligible for Hospice. Can you work at all? Perhaps a part-time job?
