Can a nursing home take your home?
In most places the nursing home would first need to take you to court to receive a judgement allowing them to take your home in partial payment for the cost of nursing home services. If they are in the process of doing that, you need to see a lawyer. As far as I know, in Texas, a person's home cannot be taken to pay a commercial debt. However, medicade requires a person going into a nursing home sell all their property, including their home and pay the nursing home costs out of their estate until all that remains is something like $2000 before medicade will begin covering nursing home expenses.

How does the cost of senior home care compare to that of a nursing home?
The cost of senior home care is typically lower than that of a nursing home because seniors receive care at home rather than in a facility. Nursing homes provide more comprehensive services and round-the-clock care, which makes them more expensive. The cost of care can vary depending on the level of assistance needed and location.
