Social Security Income While at Rolling Hills
As a nursing home resident, you are not eligible to continue receiving Social Security Income payments unless that is your only source of income.

Medical cards through SSI will likely be in effect for one month after your nursing home admission. Residents must complete an application to the WREA at 1-800-627-0430 for Medical Assistance as soon as they know when their SSI will stop.
