They cannot throw your parents out either until you find a place that is acceptable. I have seen residents that are physically inappropriate for assisted living. They need a nursing home. But, they drag their feet and they tell assisted living. They cannot find a place and this goes on for months. One thing that is concerning. Did your parent sign themselves in. Did you sign any paperwork. I am just wondering if they can come after you and put a lien on your home.

Being evicted certainly is based upon income, the insurance they have and whether an assisted living facility accepts insurance coverage such as Medicare and/or Medicaid. If they are in a facility that drew up a spend down contract, you would have to re-negotiate under their current circumstances. In addition, some facilities reconsider certain health conditions, such as cognitive issues (i.e., Alzheimer's). My suggestion is to discuss the matter with the facility and if you are not sure of your parents' rights, I would suggest contacting a qualified and respected elder law attorney who can guide you through the process. Many attorneys offer free consultations. You legally are entitled to view your parents' files at the assisted living facility, as well as are entitled to a copy of any and all documents. You might have to pay for copies. I would purchase one of those inexpensive (about $100) portable scanners. Ask to see their file, scan every document, and download them into your personal computer for safekeeping. This way, you will have the documents for an attorney to view. This will provide all the necessary information an attorney will need to properly provide accurate advise. Hope this helps.
