If you rmother transferred property to you, for less thatn full consideration, within three yers of entering he nursing home, then the property may be disgorged form you , or you could b esurcharged for eh preent avlaue of the property. But, generally, a chidl is nto liable fo reh nursing home bill of their parnet, unless they agre to be responsible. Be very careful what you sign, or who you give your name and information to.
Good luck
