I chose Manorcare Health Services for my mom because it was close to my grandmother’s house and I knew some people who used to work there and she referred them. The rooms were clean, big enough for two people and she shared it with another resident. The staff was very good, professional and they communicated with you. I had been pleased by the care she got because she gained weight since she moved in. I liked that the staff interacted with the family member and they contacted me before they did anything to her. Every month they called and gave an evaluation. I had not eaten there but she seemed to like the food. I thought that she needed more activities for stimulation because she was a high-functioning individual.

My in-laws were in Villages on MacArthur. My in-law fell and hurt his hand, which got infected, and they didn’t properly tend to it. And so he had to go back to the hospital to get some work done on it and then went back to McArthur and then got dismissed. It was understaffed and some rules were unworkable, but this is all due to COVID. The staff was courteous, but you couldn’t count on them to do things that they were saying that they would do. We lost a lot of clothes in there. I never got to see the inside because they would only allow one person and we always let my wife go in, which is their daughter. And that was limited to once a week. They were pretty much in isolated prison, as far as we’re concerned. And that’s where they would wander around and walk into other people’s rooms, and urinate in a closet of somebody else’s room. So they were not well staffed, nor were they well attended. The staff would come to the door and get whatever supplies we were supposed to give to them, and that would be it. That’s the only interaction that we ever had with them. We got no status reports. They’re still sending us bills for things that I got zero balance on. I call them and ask them how much, and they’re still coming up with charges.

My wife was at OnPointe. She had been treated for pain on morphine, and when they discharged her, they had taken her off of it. They didn’t give her any morphine or a prescription to take home, so she was back in the hospital about a day or later. OnPointe is on top of the hospital, and the room itself was pretty comfortable. It’s more of a hospital type and sterile atmosphere. She had problems getting service like getting her diaper changed and getting her meds. They had physical therapy and a couple of places where you could visit with your relatives.

Financial Assistance for Nursing Home Care in Grand Prairie, TX
Many seniors and their families use some form of financial assistance to help them pay for nursing care. The main options available are Medicare, Medicaid, and veterans benefits. These programs can be complicated, especially when it comes to benefit terms. Below, we give a brief overview of how these programs may be used towards paying for skilled nursing care.
- Medicare: Medicare will typically cover all skilled nursing costs for the first 20 days of one’s stay in a nursing home and a portion of the costs until day 100. After 100 days in a skilled nursing facility, Medicare will not cover any part of the cost of the stay. While this is adequate when short-term care is needed, those in need of long-term care will need to either pay out-of-pocket or use another source of financial assistance.
- Medicaid: Medicaid covers most of the costs of living in a skilled nursing facility for those who qualify. Care, room, and board are covered with no time limit, but residents may be charged for extras like specially prepared food or cosmetic services. Medicaid eligibility standards are strict and complex, so not all seniors are eligible for Medicaid benefits.
- Veterans Benefits: Veterans receiving a VA pension may also be eligible for the Aid and Attendance benefit administered by the VA. Aid and Attendance is a monthly allowance that beneficiaries may use to pay for their long-term care, including skilled nursing care.
If these options aren’t available to you, check if your loved one has long-term care insurance or contact your Area Agency on Aging to ask about any local financial assistance programs for seniors.
