Oasis Senior Advisors share when to consider full-time senior care Oasis Senior Advisors Austin and Central Texas has been helping families navigate senior care and senior living options since 2016. The free service helps connect Central Texans to the best forms of care and housing based on their needs, said John Brown, certified senior adviser and CEO of Oasis Senior Advisors Austin and Central Texas. When might families want to consider full-time care for their loved ones? There’s a couple of indicators ... Someone who has been diagnosed with dementia or Alzheimer’s ... you need to start having a plan pretty quickly. When it comes to incontinence care, [safely moving from one place to another] ... that’s at the point you need to start considering higher levels of care. ... If they are starting to have mobility issues or a fall
risk, then at that point you’ve got to consider 24 hours a day. What are some factors family should take into account when deciding which type of care to pursue? You have to kind of look at everything from the top down. What is their diagnosis? Most impor- tantly, what is their financial situation? How is their mobility? It’s got to be a whole approach. ... If you start needing care, it gets quite expensive quite quickly, and so that’s why you should always have a plan. What are some financing options for families looking to put their loved ones in full-time care? There’s [Veterans Affairs] Aid and Attendance, which helps veterans. There’s long-term care insur- ance. ... A lot of times it’s the home and whatever they have in their retirement. For those people who don’t have the income, Medicaid would be an option. There are two senior living options under Medicaid, but you have to meet medical necessity and financial necessity to qualify for those.
What are some alternatives families might want to consider before committing to full-time care? It just depends on their care. ... Maybe it can be done in independent living with a little bit of help. If they do have a little bit of mobility issues, then we might want to look at assisted living. But if there’s somebody who can’t get out of the building on their own, then at that point, it’s either bringing in much more care into the home, or it’s time to look at a higher level of assisted living.
