By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

APFM does not (and may not) require or even ask consumers seeking senior housing or care services in Washington State to sign waivers of liability for losses of personal property or injury or to sign waivers of any rights established under law.I agree that: A.I authorize A Place For Mom ("APFM") to collect certain personal and contact detail information, as well as relevant health care information about me or from me about the senior family member or relative I am assisting ("Senior Living Care Information").

You must be aware that no one will show or buy a home that has a meth addict in it.
You will have to proceed with eviction and that will require an attorney and possibly restraining orders.
Please seek the advice of a good elder law attorney.
Start the 30-day eviction process (assuming his name doesn't appear on the deed). Then you want to go to the police station and get some guidance. I mean, he may have his stash right there in the house, which could get him in trouble (and nowadays drug offenses don't include arrests hardly ever).
If he is cooking meth in that house, that's a biohazard and may prevent the sale of the house.
You can go there with "support" (large guys) to talk to him. You can video his behavior. You should video what condition the house is in at that time and also to record what further damage he does before he leaves. '
I'm so sorry you and your Mom are in this mess.
The house will need to be sold at Market Value if there is a possibility that Mom will need Medicaid in the future. The proceeds go to Moms care. If you buy a trailer with the proceeds, it has to be be in Moms name. You being on it is a question for Medicaid.
"Once meth is found and reported, the health department closes the property. That means you cannot live in or rent out the home until after proper decontamination. That is a process with many steps, including submitting specific work plans to the health department and follow-up testing, so make sure to check... for more information."

Is her paperwork in order? Is she still competent? You should be her POA. She should have a living will. And a regular will - which hopefully leaves nothing to the meth head. Good lord.
You need more help than I can give you on exactly how to go about it but call an attorney today about evicting him. Once that's done, get it on the market and take what you can get for it.
Think hard about a mobile home with you and mom living it in. It's going to be kind of tight and potentially difficult to live together like that. I would seriously consider sticking with the nursing home. My mom lived with me and hubby for 8 years and it was way too long and way too hard. And that's in a good sized house where she had her own bedroom and bathroom at the other end of the house.
Good luck.
Now, if you did notice the above mentioned smells, then everything your Mom owns would need to be decontaminated, from her clothing, shoes, purses, china, furniture, etc. Since the hospital didn't notice such smells on her, they would have notified the proper authorities, and had your Mom in a decontamination room.
