But it doesn't, so when our parents get to that point of not being able to safely care for themselves, we are faced with (1) keeping them at home and providing 24/7/365 care by ourselves, (2) letting them stay at home and using whatever monetary resources they still have and we might be able to contribute to hire nurses and aids to care for them, (3) put them in a nursing home and take advantage of the medicaid provisions (which would not take effect until after every last dime of their assets have been spent first.)
Dismal, isn’t it?
Perhaps the only way that the current administration would change the Medicare/Medicaid payment rules to permit home care is to convince Obama and crew that he could create thousands of instant jobs for ACORN and the SEIU workers.
Now that *would* be a dismal scenario: ACORN and SEIU workers tending to your Granny, pawing through her possessions and enjoying some of her SS payments. In a perverse way, her longevity might actually be ensured.

Oy. I guess they were trying to evoke that "autumn of your years" idea but harvest? Hmmm. Not a good choice in an eldercare context, especially when the one time anybody else will actually look at the residents' driver's licenses in their lives in order to check if consent was ever given for organ donation will eventually be right inside that place.
So Harvest is not such a great name for your brother's new home, then, but quite fitting, in a perverse way for Obamacare's new Death Facilitation Camps, isn't it, where the separation of young & healthy 'wheat' from the elderly & infirm 'chaff' is evidently the hope & change everyone was waiting for.
Please PING your lists to my FR Thread. I have been trying to get the information out since I learned it June 25, 2009.
I would think of them as a “Cash for Codgers” program. You drop grandma off at one, renounce other medical benefits, and get a 4500 dollar rebate.

lol!
Very good potlatch!
Found it on another site.
...and for this health care I suppose the elderly will have to sign over their homes to the government???
Actually, it's going to be my new tagline.
That wouldn’t surprise me. Many elderly have had to sign away their homes to nursing homes for many years now.
I may be stupid, but how is this different from current nursing homes?
How do I get the graphic!??? I want it on my Facebook!
want that graphic, too...to post on Facebook...please help.
These medical homes specifically say that doctor will not be required.
other parts of obama care.
PG 429 Lines 10-12 “advance care consultation” may include an ORDER for end of life plans. AN ORDER from Government.
PG 632 Lines 14-25 The Government may implement any “Quality measure” of HealthCare Services as they see fit.
That, and “Soylent Green is people.” The Kenyan is trying to take us down the road to perdition..
the scary part of this....I just realized they will be telling ME what care my children will and will not get... they heart conditions! My mother has heart issues and my dad has cancer. So... let the black hitler rule???!!! Truly, this is nothing short of Germany, the 2009 version!

is this the same place you are getting the information from?!
This is truly gut-wrenching! Two of three of my daughters have heart conditions. Someone who knows nothing about them will tell them what they can and cannot receive for health care!? Abortions will be funded, like it or not and every region in the US must have them available. If you are elderly, they will give you information on how to kill yourself, or help you do it. THIS IS LIKE THE STORY LINE OF A HORROR MOVIE in REAL LIFE!
ON MY KNEES! How God's heart must be breaking! Mandated abortions, euthanasia, killing off the weak and ill... flashbacks of Germany, anyone?
And what is this about government access to our financial records and accounts??!!! HUH!?? Automatic debits for the mandated health care plan!?? This is a REPUBLIC? Where are my choices? Where are my rights??!!
I do not remember what it was but U GOT IT!
