Financial Assistance for Assisted Living in West Palm Beach

The Optional State Supplementation (OSS) Program Low-income Florida seniors already residing in care facilities, such as assisted living, can apply for the&nbsp;<a href="http://www.dcf.state.fl.us/service-programs/access/temporary-cash-assistance.shtml" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://www.dcf.state.fl.us/service-programs/access/temporary-cash-assistance.shtml" rel="noopener noreferrer">Optional State Supplementation (OSS) Program</a>, which provides financial assistance for room and board. Payments vary by the facility type, with a maximum of $239 monthly for individuals and $487 for couples. To qualify, applicants must be 65 or older (unless disabled) and in residential care. Monthly income cannot exceed $828.40 for individuals and $1,656.80 for couples. Income limits are moderately higher for residents in mental health care facilities. Additional asset limits apply and are similar to those required for Medicaid approval. To apply for this program, you can visit<a href="http://www.myflorida.com/accessflorida/" target="_blank" data-mce-href="http://www.myflorida.com/accessflorida/" rel="noopener noreferrer">ACCESS Florida</a>. VA Aid and Attendance Program Eligible veterans or their surviving spouses who need help with assisted living costs should explore the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.benefits.va.gov/pension/aid_attendance_housebound.asp" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.benefits.va.gov/pension/aid_attendance_housebound.asp" rel="noopener noreferrer">VA Aid and Attendance Program</a>, which provides funding beyond the basic VA pension to offset costs of care. The VA Aid and Attendance Program is available to veterans over 65 who require help with activities of daily living. Because of the complex financial eligibility requirements for this program, potential applicants should visit their local&nbsp;<a href="https://www.va.gov/find-locations/?facilityType=benefits" target="_blank" data-mce-href="https://www.va.gov/find-locations/?facilityType=benefits" rel="noopener noreferrer">VA benefits office.</a> Assisted Living and Elderlife Bridge Loans Elderlife bridge loans provide a temporary solution for individuals and families in need of immediate funds for assisted living. They’re ideal for seniors who are in the midst of selling a home or awaiting benefit approval. Bridge loans can be taken as a lump-sum disbursement or a line of credit and generally have a quick approval process time. For families looking to share expenses, multiple borrowers may apply for a single loan. While lenders do consider credit scores, the importance of individual creditworthiness diminishes on applications with multiple borrowers. Since bridge loans are generally family loans, the age and health of the senior receiving care doesn’t factor into the approval process. Lenders generally require information regarding the source of anticipated permanent funding.
