$200k for retirement - but already 65

I'm helping a relative figure out how to best invest around $200,000 which is going to be their retirement fund. The thing is, they are already 65 - not retired yet but not far off. Is it as simple as putting as much cash as possible into the 401k?

There is a small 401k right now but not much, so this will make up the majority of their retirement savings. We want to make sure this money is there to help pay for care as they get older as well as giving a small income upon retirement.

This is in Tennessee. Thank you Metafilter!
