You could see if your Grandmother can be approved for Medicaid [which is different from Medicare].
It all depends on what State you live in, as each State has their own Medicaid programs which are funded by the taxpayers. If you happen to be in a State that does pay, please note you probably will get minimal pay for a few hour each day.
This is a tough situation especially if you need wages to pay your own bills. If Grandmother needs around the clock care, the family should think about Grandmother moving to an Assisted Living/Nursing Home that accepts Medicaid. I know, it's not always a choice that the family wants to make. Some places have a long waiting list, thus better to place Grandmother's name now and not wait until you have crashed and burned from exhaustion.
