My Mom was just accepted into Hospice and I was looking forward to having help mornings. After the initial 4.5 hour intake interview, they sent a young girl here at 8am. She was sweet, but, couldnt lift, roll, or get the hoyer to lift my Mom correctly. I had to hold her tight while she wetwiped her (they call that a bath?!) After two days of this I said I need someone different and they said size doesnt matter, if she cannot do it, then just have her help feed Mom or something. Duhh what help is that to me? I was told most parents in my Moms condition are in a NH and she is a two person patient and they cannot send 2 people. I was very nice to them,yet told them I could be that 2nd person if the 1st one had some strength. Anyone else have issues with hospice?
I am sorry about your mom being on hospice. I wish your mom, your family, and you much peace and blessings at this time.
You might also get recommendations from your mother's physicians.
Cyber hugs,
