It's probably too late to do anything now.  If, for example, you want to get her on Medeicaid there is a 5 year look-back period.  Any transfer of her assets now would deemed to be a fraudulent conveyance and would be undone by the courts.  Not to mention that it could open you up to  a charge of Medicaid fraud.Unfortunately people wait too long to take care of these matters.  At this point you should really consult with an estate planning attorney in your area, possibly he/she would have some other suggestions on how to handle all of this.
