Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
My friend's mother is on Medicaid. She has been unable to take the citizenship exam due to dementia. Will her lack of citizenship be a problem if she needs to place her in a dementia care unit. Currently the dementia is mild
Afraid that we aren't Medicaid or Medicaid experts here. As I understand things, non citizens qualify for Medicaid if they are part of and qualify for Social Security system here.
This really is a question that your friend is going to have to research. Encourage your friend to start with a call to Medicare/Medicaid itself, or to visit their excellent online site.
No, my MIL never became a citizen and received Medicare and SS. If she is getting some form of Medicaid now, then she must have a greencard and has lived hear over 5 years.
The problem with Medicaid is our new President wants to stop funding it. That would mean States are on their own. Eventually may get harder to get.
Everything about Medicaid and non-citizens is in flux right now. I'm part of my church's team that has an outreach to legitimate refugees. We are working with another religious non-profit that is an umbrella ministry to help the assimilate. We just learned that the government funding to this program has been cut. This means staff will be cut. This means our team won't be supported with resources and education/information. We also have heard rumors that even refugees that were allowed here by our government now may be sent back. This is so far a rumor. Time will tell.
Lorrainie, Can you clarify if the Mom is new to the States? If she's been here for a few years then why hasn't she taken the citizenship exam up until now? Is she "overstaying" a visit? Has she been here longer than 3 months? This may make a difference in the suggestions you get.
Well, with all the federal cuts to Medicaid, it seems inevitable that states in turn would prioritize citizens first. In any case though, Medicaid doesn’t usually cover memory care. She would have to get bad enough for a nh for housing.
If she has a SS number and worked for the minimum required number of years then she should qualify. She is already on Medicaid so there should be no problem
You don't have to be a citizen to livebin the US. You establish residency and get a Greencard. After 5 years, yiu are entitled to benefits. This woman had Medicaid so she has probably been here for a while?
My MIL came here as a war bride. She never became a citizen. Her passport was English. Her sister married an American and followed later. She is 96 and still has her English passport.
"No, you don't need to be a U.S. citizen to reside in the United States. Non-citizens can become lawful permanent residents (LPRs), often referred to as "green card holders," and live and work in the country permanently, while still remaining subject to immigration laws."
