ABSOLUTELY!!
Thinking back, one of the greatest assets my son had was the medical social worker in the hospital and in the nursing home. They paved the way for everything to be set in place and kept him where it was needed when he had to qualify for home services.
Its a screwy system, but once the patient is home-its almost impossible to get the services that they're entitled to - at home. Ya gotta be in an institution to apply, and wait for authorization before going home..
