BREALTY REAL ESTATE REPORT THE NURSING HOME No one desires to go to the nursing home, but if you can't live safely in your home, you may need to go to assisted living or the nursing home whether it be temporarily or long-term. Both are expensive and you will need to pay what isn't covered by Medicare, Medicaid or insurance. Medicaid is available after your resources are spent down below a certain level. Rules allow for the protection of resources and joint income for spouses. Many times, your home can be used to pay for your care. Don't sign anything without consulting your attorney. I've written letters for several people stating what the value of the home is for this purpose. Ask the nursing home to send me the form.
