MEMORANDUM
TO Mr. Louis LaTorre, Fxecutive Director DATE
Monroe County Social Services
FROM Gwen Carr, Manager
Monroe County Home
SUBJECT Applicant for admission
to the Monroe County
Home
Mr. Anthony Thompson has applied for admission to the Monroe County
Home.
Mr. Thompson is 66 years old and has resided in Monroe County all of
his life. He has Medicare hospital and medical insurance.
His income is Social Security retirement in the amount of $108.00 per
month. He has no other income and no family able to supplement his
income.
Mr. Thompson lives alone, has no family able to provide adequate care,
and is no longer able to care for himself without assistance. He meets
all other criteria for admission.
Based on the facts that are stated above it is my recommendation that
Mr. Thompson be admitted to the Monroe County Home paying as his rate
of pay the monthly amount of his Social Security income, which is at
this time $108.00.
He would not receive the $10.00 per month reimbursement for personal
funds since he is unable to pay the minimum rate.

I concur with the above recommendation.
