It was $10,000 a month cash up front (self pay) for the nursing facility a family member was recently in..... And even with home health care it’ll run you about that because if you take them out of the facility they determine what you have to have in the home to accommodate their care....in this case 24 hour nurses.

So it would just be easier or more convenient if you got your neighbors, many who might still be paying off mortgages or renting, to pay for it? I don't really see what a dollar figure for home care has to do with the original topic. We already know it's expensive.

Well first off we didn’t need anyones help and would not have had she lived. Second, although we knew costs would be significant, having already had home care for her, I did not realize the cost of facility care and all that entails......which is what this article references....therefore it certainly does have to do with the topic of protecting your assets and costs relating to care.
