6. Look into the look back there..... But, no matter what

have her get rid of her assets today. Not trusts, not inheritances, none of that, gift it. My Mom died in june (In CA) and they are already after her estate after being on MediCal... And because I told her how it was going to happen (and for once she listened to me) and how she protected her assets, the money she saved ( A pittance really) was mine free and clear because she gifted it to her relatives.

If the Gov't (local and state) pay for your care they want to be paid for the money they spent. And assisted living is very very expensive and it is more likely that ehy have a program that keeps her in the home with a care giver than paying for assisted living. So have her get rid of it. All of it.
