Correction: $4,300/month ya'll. I'm going to get better I promise! But the rest of the information is 100% correct. Without proper planning many of us will end up somewhere like this. We ALL need a plan. Go to my linktree and download the free Sunset Planning Checklist and start planning for your sunset today!

It depends on where you are. Missouri has the lowest cost of assisted living $34,000/year. DC has the highest being over six figures a year. Then it depends on a person’s preferences, finances, as well as mental and physical condition. You may be able to afford a much nicer facility. Medicare does not pay for assisted living or long term care AT ALL. Medicaid however is the highest payer of long term care services in the country.

Good morning, Sunset. I have a question. We have our parents in a senior living facility here in Georgia. Father has Parkinson’s, Mother has Alzheimer’s. We have them in a room together on the assisted side. This place costs about $8k per month. She is not in need of assistance or memory care as of yet, but he needs assistance, since he only has one leg. He falls allot, and needs help bathing and transferring. My question to you is this: Since this facility is known to be one of the most reputable in the area, in the following scenarios, what would YOU think should happen? Scenario 1: 78 year old resident with one leg falls in the bathroom at 2am , hits his head causing it to open and start gushing blood. Resident is now on the floor. - [ ] What is the required response and action of the responder if the resident pushes his lanyard pendant - [ ] What is the required response and action of the responder if the resident pulls the toilet cord - [ ] What is the required response and action of the responder if the resident fails to notify via pendant or cord pull Scenario 2: 78 year old resident with one leg falls off the bed at 11 pm, scrapes his leg, causing it to bleed. Resident needs assistance to get back into bed, as well as needs to have his scrape assessed. - [ ] What is the required response and action of the responder if the resident pushes his lanyard pendant - [ ] What is the required response and action of the responder if the resident pulls the toilet cord - [ ] What is the required response and action of the responder if the resident fails to notify via pendant or cord pull They are not on Medicare or medicade. They pay via his VA and retirement. If you could provide YOUR professional opinion, that would be helpful. Thanks.

@mysunsetdoula Жыл бұрын

Scenario 1: If resident calls via pending or other method, they need to respond in a timely manner. If in assisted living, caregivers should be rounding every 2 hours at minimum in case resident failed to call. Scenario 2: doesn’t matter what time it is. Address the knee and help him back to bed. Falls can be difficult to prevent depending on the resident and staff to resident ratio. I hope your parents are doing well 💜

Medicare approved?? Medicare doesn't cover for long term care. Medicaid will cover some of the cost. Social Security, other agency or families cover the rest. I think this facility looks nice. Clean, nicely decorated, huge facility. I'm not sure what people expect? Most of these ALF nickel and dime residents, providing substandard care, while the owners get rich. Most ALF have very little government oversight or enforcement.@@mysunsetdoula

⁠I’m in a Houston…what’s the name of this place?

@mysunsetdoula Жыл бұрын

Clarewood House is the name of the facility. I do not recommend it which is why I didn't say the name in the video. It does except Medicaid. It claims to be an "age in place" facility. But it does not have a memory care unit. So if dementia progresses, a resident would have to move. This happened to a client of mine. Her and her family had a horrible experience with them. There are better options in Houston. Consider a residential care home.

I know. I know. Smh got to be more careful. $4,300. I believe I corrected it in the description. This is the low end.

Yes. As I corrected in the title and description. However it has gone up since I posted this video almost 2 years ago.

How can it be $43000 per month? I would re-record that. Also medicaid is for people who cannot afford anything. I think you are talking about medicare with is for the elderly.

@mysunsetdoula 6 ай бұрын

No I meant Medicaid. Medicare does not pay for long term care. Medicaid is the highest payor of long term care in the country. Already addressed the error in the video. Thanks for commenting.

Your $43,000 a month is incorrect.

I know. I corrected it in the title and description. It was $4,300 at the time I made this video. I wish I could delete it but it’s still my number 1 video. I think in large part because of the constant corrections lol. The price has gone up since then.

Not just a rip off. Unfortunately in our country we don’t want to take care of our parents. Some of us want to but literally cannot. We need real, better, and more affordable options.
