Just about every State, County, City has some form of an assistance program under various names such as;

Department of Aging and Adult Services

Division of Aging and Adult Services

Social Services Agency

Mental Health Association

Adult Protective Services

Senior Service Providers

You are not the first landlord to experience this situation. A kind and thoughtful landlord would contact such services for assistance.

Just an opinion but; Would you rather have some newspaper or news report pointing out an eviction by some uncaring or unconcern landlord or one reporting how a landlord went the extra mile to help an elderly tenant in bad health and unable to continue renting find appropriate health and housing services.

Ask landlord's mortgage company whether they care if the debtor is "kind and thoughtful" or uncaring or unconcern[ed]". I don't know about you, but I don't have enough free time for my family, much less to spend it on making call after call to line up help for someone without the incentive or foresight to do it for herself.

Why would your mortgage company even be involved in such a situation? Unless you do not have proper operating funds on hand. If you do not have time to make the call(s) now, how will you be able to find the time to proceed with an eviction. It appears that you rather find an excuse than to make a call!

If you or I wanted to do charitable work setting up services for the elderly or infirm, I bet we'd both be working in that field and getting paid for it. I'm not a social worker, I'm a landlord.
