Me and my wife recently paid our mortgage offf and we are both disabled.We were told to put the home in a living trust to protect it from creditors .

There are too many different variables to answer the question of to protect specific assets, as it currently is asked.  It depends on numerous factual issues, such as who the creditor is.   You should consult a local estate planning attorney because each state has unique laws and a local attorney can determine how best to protect specific assets.   This is not intended to be legal advice, and is general in its nature.
