How do I get assistance if my family needs nursing facility care or personal care in the home?
If you or someone in your family needs nursing facility care or personal care in the home and cannot afford the cost, you should apply for Medicaid. The nursing facility or personal care provider must be a Medicaid provider. If the individual is in a nursing home, he or she must be in a Medicaid certified bed.
