After the designation of the person’s assets during court, payment of debts will also be announced to whoever the court would call responsible. So a family member, spouse, or close friend will continue with paying everything you owe which is why you should make an estate plan to prevent this sort of conflict.

4. Does a trust protect assets from a nursing home?

 Yes, as long as you transfer funds towards your rent, mortgage, or assistant living instead of going to a nursing home.

The transfer of death only makes the probate process much more difficult having you provide additional details and reason for the transfer.
