Questions families ask

My mother fell at home in Apex and is being sent to rehab — what happens if she can't go back home afterward?

If your mother's rehab stay ends and she still needs help with daily activities beyond what home care can safely provide, the rehab facility's social worker can help evaluate options ranging from an adult care home (assisted living) to continued skilled nursing on a long-term basis. If she is running low on funds, ask the facility's social worker about applying for long-term-care Medicaid through Wake County DSS and, if she needs nursing-facility-level care but wants to try staying home instead, ask about the CAP/DA Medicaid waiver. Start these conversations early in the rehab stay rather than waiting for discharge day, since Medicaid applications take time to process.

I'm exhausted from caring for my husband with Parkinson's in Durham — what respite options exist before I burn out completely?

Adult day programs in the Durham area provide structured daytime supervision so you can work, rest, or run errands, and the Central Pines/Triangle J Area Agency on Aging (1-800-310-9777) maintains referral information on local options. If your husband qualifies for the CAP/DA Medicaid waiver, respite care is one of its covered in-home services, allowing a paid aide to step in for scheduled breaks. Short-term respite stays at licensed adult care homes are another option for a multi-day break; ask Duke Health's care coordination team or the Area Agency on Aging for current openings.

I live in Seattle and my mother lives alone in Raleigh — how do I manage her care from across the country?

Start by identifying a local point of contact: a geriatric care manager, a trusted neighbor, or a home-care agency that can do in-person check-ins, since phone calls alone won't reveal safety issues at home. Contact the Central Pines/Triangle J Area Agency on Aging (1-800-310-9777) for free options counseling covering Wake County, and ask your mother's primary care provider (WakeMed, UNC REX, or Duke-affiliated practices all offer patient portals) whether you can be added as an authorized contact so you can join telehealth visits remotely. Establishing power of attorney for healthcare and finances now, while she's able to sign, will make it far easier to act quickly if a crisis happens.
