Stuck in a Nursing Home in Modesto But Want to Go Home? Free Help Getting Out Is Yours


You're in a nursing home. You hate it. You want to go home. But everyone says "it's not safe" or "you need too much care." So you're stuck.

Or your doctor is saying you need to go to a nursing home. And you're terrified. You don't want to go. You want to stay in your own home or move to assisted living. But you don't know how.

Here's the truth: Over 100,000 people in California nursing homes could live in the community if they had support. And people who move from nursing homes back to the community live longer and are happier. You don't have to be stuck.

You can get out. Or avoid going in the first place.

People in Modesto, Stockton, and Merced are living in the community instead of nursing homes right now. You could too.


Here's What Happens If You Stay (Or Go)

You already know. If you're in a nursing home, you lose independence. You're miserable. You decline faster. Or if you go into one, you give up everything—your home, your freedom, your life.

People in nursing homes have 3 times higher rates of depression than people living in the community. Because nobody wants to be there.

Don't let that happen.

Click here right now and see if you qualify. Two minutes. Tell us you want to stay home or get out. We'll help you.

Here's What to Say (So You Qualify)

How you describe your situation matters. Never lie. But frame it right.

❌ DON'T say: "I'd prefer to live at home." ✅ DO say: "I'm in a nursing home but I want to return to the community. I need transition services and support to live safely outside the facility."

❌ DON'T say: "My doctor mentioned a nursing home." ✅ DO say: "I'm at risk of nursing home placement. I want to stay in the community. I need services and support to divert placement and remain independent."

❌ DON'T say: "I need some help at home." ✅ DO say: "Without comprehensive support services, I will require nursing facility placement. I need transition/diversion services to live in the community safely."

The difference? One meets criteria. One doesn't. Both are true. Frame it right.


Is This Really Free?

Yes. Completely free.

If you have Medi-Cal and you're in a nursing home or facing placement, transition services are covered. Your health plan pays for it.

No co-pay. No bills. No fees. Up to $7,500 for moving and setup costs.

Even if you own a car or have some savings, you still qualify. Medi-Cal doesn't count that anymore.

The only "catch" is you have to be medically eligible to live in the community with support. And most people are.


This Could Save Your Independence

Imagine this: You wake up tomorrow. You're not in a nursing home anymore. Or you never went in the first place. You're in your own apartment. Or assisted living. You have help when you need it. But you have freedom. You have independence. You have your life back.

That's what this does. Free. Right here in Modesto, Stockton, and Merced.

You'd be crazy to give up your independence when free help to avoid nursing homes exists.

Click here and get started. Two minutes. That's it.


Who Gets Nursing Home Transition/Diversion Help?

If you have Medi-Cal and any of this sounds like you:

✓ You're currently in a nursing home and want to leave ✓ Your doctor is recommending nursing home placement ✓ You're being discharged from the hospital and they want to send you to a nursing home ✓ You need a lot of care but want to stay in the community ✓ You're scared you'll end up in a nursing home without help ✓ You want to live independently or in assisted living instead

Then you probably qualify.

Real examples from the Central Valley:

  • An 82-year-old in Modesto left a nursing home after 6 months—got her own apartment with home care services

  • A 70-year-old in Stockton avoided nursing home placement after a stroke—got in-home care instead

  • A disabled 55-year-old in Merced transitioned from a facility to assisted living with full support
