I posted before reading the thread all the way.

Include her in the decisions and do let her keep her own stuff for her living space.
She will welcome the familiarity of her own things, especially if she has a rocking chair!
Ours has a million smiles and a million miles on it, “wouldn’t trade it for all of the tea in China” as my beloved Dad used to say.
He passed away three years ago and I still cry as I type this.
It’s all about Love and respect.

Well then, there are a bazillion government overlapping programs to help her. Contact a social worker, through her physician or hospital and every overlapping Medicare/Medicaid/S.S. you name it will be reaching out to help.
Contact your local Senior Center, we actually have a kind of Coop program where I live that gives a great price on elderly housing, if that;s not workable, they have transportation, day care, all kinds of day actvities with handicapped help.
You are paying for it, take advantage!
God Bless you.
