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.

Have you checked the assessor records online to see who the condo owner is? After I went through the experience with my twisted sissies, I have a very suspicious mind and trust absolutely no one.
I am glad that she is leaving him be.
Anyway....
There is a process by which one gets into a NH; the easiest route is if a patient is in the hospital and gets placed by the discharge department. That lets you skip the waiting list.
Most likely, the only place with available beds is the least desirable one in your area. You CAN move mom once she's placed; the best scenario would be for mom to he hospitalized for 3 days and be eligible for a brief stint in rehab which would then turn into a long term care stay.
Has she been approved for long term care Medicaid or Community Medicaid? Those are two very different things.
First, ur probably going to have to reapply to Medicaid again to cover her longterm care. So, yes, it would be private pay until the application is approved. It may not be.
If she is on Medicaid for her healthcare (which I would confirm if she got it because she was in LTC) she may be able to get homecare.
I think what you may want to do is call Medicaid and see what needs to be done to get Mom back into LTC. Make sure they know that ur not the one that created this problem your just trying to find out ur options.
Boy, I would have killed my siblings. I would help but not give up anything. They made this mess they should clean it up. :)
It's just weird that other nursing home agree to take her until they find out she left AMA.
In what circumstances did she leave the last NH against medical advice? If it was messy and/or expensive, other facilities may decide they don't want to take the risk of admitting her.
What did the NH she left say when you approached them, and how long ago was it that she left?
Meanwhile, I think brother and sister had better take it in turns to support your mother at home until an acceptable place can be found for her - don't you?
