What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? NH
I have "Power of Attorney" to deal with my 91 yr old grandfather who is in a nursing home because of failing health and dementia. I did this to help manage his financial situation. I will be initiating Medicaid which should apply because he has "NO ASSETS" other than property that is in both his and his 89 yr old common law wifes name. He also receives a monthly SS check. Can the nursing home hold me responsible for any charges that are not covered by Medicaid?
