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.
VI. No Waiver of Your Rights. 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"). B.APFM may provide information to me electronically. My electronic signature on agreements and documents has the same effect as if I signed them in ink.

How old are you? Do you have SS? Medicaid for health? You need to get your ducks in a row. Go to Social Services and see if they can help. Maybe putting u up in a motel with food vouchers. Help find u a place within your means. The only one who can get you out of this situation is you.
Get out of this situation . Go stay at a homeless shelter if you have to while you look for a job , then find a room to rent or share an apartment .
Or as already suggested , if you have a mobile home , move it off this person’s land.
Do you even have a written contract? No?
The person you are caring for sounds like they are mentally ill or has dementia, or both. Run away... this isn't going to end well for you.
Then one realizes there isn't an income to pay for everyday needs. No income to pay for health insurance/doctor/dentist. No income to put gas in the car. No money going into Social Security/Medicare. Zero money going into savings. Does selling items on-line even pay for your groceries? Where are you getting items to sell to even get a small income?
I would pack up and go to a homeless shelter. Unless you are living in your own trailer, find a camp ground for the time being. Large stores are always looking for shelving help.
Chances are, they’ll give you some go-away money.
If you are not getting paid you do one of the following:
Ask that you start getting paid for the hours you work. Stipulate that you will quit if you do not get paid.
"Living on the land" is NOT fair compensation for caregiving.
Stop caregiving. If the person is a vulnerable senior and there is no family that will care for her if she can not care for herself call APS and or your State's Elder Abuse number and report an unsafe situation.
No matter what you do if she hits you
Leave the room, call 911 and tell the dispatcher that you have been hit, you feel unsafe.
Press charges. Otherwise they are not going to do anything and the cycle will continue. But you will have to leave the property.
