Does my income hurt my mother's medicaid eligibility?

If my mother lives with me, does my income count against her ability to qualify for medicaid? I am a physician and caregiver for my mother who is in the early stages of dementia right now. I am thinking ahead and wondering if she lives with me, whether my income and assets will be an impediment toward her ability to get medicaid in the future. Thanks for any advice.
