Covering 24 hour care. Help

In South Carolina you have to provide 24 hour supervision if you cant propel yourself. If you do not have proof or have someone with you at all times, DSS will arrange through Adult Protective Services Nursing Home placement.

We have 37 hours a week covered through the SCLTP . Is there any other financial help for people with MS/ bedbound available. My boyfriend quit his Job to prevent the worst.

Foundations, Grants ?

That’s awful!! I bet the nursing homes don’t have 24 hour supervision for each patient.

Contact both MSAA and NMSS; they may be able to direct you to sources that can help.
