Many folks put the house in the children’s name.

You have to gift it gradually.

Nope...not the house. You do these things prior to the possibility of being on Medicare and/or Medicaid.

10,000 / year used to be the limit, I think. Wonder if zer0care changed that too. Of course, if congress deems it, an entire estate can be exempted. Has happened many times.
