Is he a vet? If so, the Veteran's Service Officer in your county can give all kinds of help including getting him whatever vet benefits he may qualify for. (In Sumter Co, go to the Co Annex on 466A)

Also, contact the Area Agency on Aging for your county. They all sorts of resources and information for people over 65. I'm not as familiar with FL as I was with other states where I have lived, but he may be eligible for assistance under the Medicaid Waiver program (which was designed to help keep folks out of nursing homes).
