we had my father in a couple different places before finally getting him into a really nice place run by the veterans admin. His monthly care expense dropped from around $5k a month to about 1/2 as much. if he had not owned property and assets, his monthly social security check would have been his payment. If her father has ever served in the military, he's probably eligible. my father was in WWII and Korea I believe. There's quite a waiting list. It was almost a year before we got him accepted. The VA home was like a resort compared to the other places he was in before. defiant to the bitter end, he escaped/jumped the fence at the first place, broke beds and wheelchairs at the next and had to be restrained most of the time at the VA home.
