Hi everyone,
I have a brother who has special needs and cannot take care of himself day-to-day. He lives with my parents who are his primary caretakers + a nurse who comes by a few times a week to care for my brother's medical needs. My parents are unfortunately getting older and due to their own medical needs, it will become more difficult for them to take for my brother on a regular basis.
When it's time for me to step in, I'm trying to figure out what my options are for governmental assistance (in the US) or some type of private program where my brother can be taken care of. My wife and I don't have the means to pay for an expensive care program nor do my parents. What are our options? A big fear is my parents pass or become too old to care for my brother, and the right care isn't established for him long term. I'm trying to get ahead of it now so my family can be prepared.
Thank you
