 hello my name is juliana cardeno and i am reaching out as the daughter of a mother with parkinsons who is becoming increasingly unsafe at home my father is her primary caregiver and is 67 years old and he is experiencing significant caregiver burnout he will continue living at home but my mother now requires a higher level of care than we can safely provide my sister is also moving away for school soon which will leave even less support i am trying to help my parents navigate placement but the level of care my mom needs is making it very difficult for me to get my own life and career started as i am only 21 years old we are very concerned about safety and the sustainability of the current situation we are working with an elder law attorney on medicaid planning but we cannot afford a long private pay requirement such as a 2 year guarantee i wanted to ask do you accept medicaid or medicaid pending residents can we join a waitlist now while medicaid is being arranged do you require a 2 year private pay commitment do you offer assisted living or long term care options my moms income is limited primarily social security and we are trying to find a safe and realistic option before the situation worsens thank you very much for any guidance you can provide
