⚖️  Law

My first cousin is in a rehab and nursing home in Martinsville and Henry County, Virginia, after passing out. The doctor told him he cannot drive and he offered me his car. However, the social worker said he cannot transfer the car to me because he can't get on Medicaid, and they have rights to his bank account and house. I was told they don't have the right to take and sell his car. Is this true, or is the social worker just saying that to take the car as well? I need to know the legal rights in this situation.
