David lives at home with his wife Mary. He has Parkinson’s disease and mild cognitive decline. Mary wants to keep him home as long as possible, but she is struggling to provide the care he needs as she gets older.
He would like to apply for Medicaid to get home care services, but his income is too high to qualify. Using a Community Trust II account, he can deposit his surplus income each month and become financially eligible for services. The money he puts into the trust, can then pay their mortgage, property taxes and utility bills so that he can live safely and comfortably at home while getting assistance with daily tasks.
