As you know, giving her money is only teaching her to harass you until you give her money.
Stop giving money. After a few times of harassing you and getting nothing, she will find a new target because she doesn't want to waste time and energy and get nothing.
Anything you do that enables her (money, helping around her house) is only teaching her to come to you when she has needs. When she mentioned money, a good response would have been "in assisted living you would have the money from your house in the bank and all your needs would already be taken care of with the monthly payment" and drop the mic.
