Do I have to sell my house to go into a nursing home? It depends on your circumstances

According to the Center for Medicare Advocacy, most nursing home residents receive some form of Medicaid assistance, a program with strict financial eligibility rules. A common concern is whether this means you have to sell my house to go into a nursing home, a question with a complex answer that depends heavily on your marital status, property value, and other family members living in the home.
