right now i am stuck in a nursing home in new jersey. i contacted the statewide independant living council. they inturn assigned me a community choice counselor from the office of long term care options. the counselor has absolutely no clue of what programs are availble for me to get into alternative living situation that's not so restrictive. i'm on a vent while i sleep, so everywhere i turn everyone thinks i need icu level care... i lived on my own for years with very little skilled nursing care. i contacted state and local government represenitives, with no replies. my brother thinks just because i'm not being abused that this place is ok, it ain't. i have completely run out of options. please anyone with any ideas? thanks-
