Acknowledgment of Disclosures and Authorization
By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or ConsumerFeedback@aplaceformom.com to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.
VI. No Waiver of Your Rights. APFM does not (and may not) require or even ask consumers seeking senior housing or care services in Washington State to sign waivers of liability for losses of personal property or injury or to sign waivers of any rights established under law.I agree that: A.I authorize A Place For Mom ("APFM") to collect certain personal and contact detail information, as well as relevant health care information about me or from me about the senior family member or relative I am assisting ("Senior Living Care Information").

Mostly Independent
Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
Who is ordering your hospice supplies? Is it the hospice doctor or nurse? Have the nurse speak with the doctor in charge of her care. Once it is approved the order should go through.
We never had an issue with this.
Just a reminder to you that if you aren’t satisfied with the hospice provider that you are using, you can always switch to another one. Please do thorough research before choosing a hospice provider. They are NOT all the same.
Tell hospice that supplies needed and ordered for your Mom's comfort care are not being covered. Tell them you are reporting them NOW to medicare. Hospice is now getting by with murder. They are having an RN stop by once a week to chat, a bottle of morphine at the bedside and cna to give a bath two or three times a week. You are lucky if the inept social worker and clergy check in by phone. For this they are being fed huge amounts of money from medicare. Hedge funds are gobbling them up as fast as they can. They are money makers. In the case of my poor friend, dying last month, they tried not to send the CNAs saying that the 24/7 sitters that they demanded she pay for in order to leave hospital in their care would do the bathing. Ummmmm. No. And yes, they knuckled under after threats of reporting them for taking government money for almost no care. Report them and let them know that you are doing so right away. Wound care is comfort care; this should be covered along with other medical suppliers they already have a "deal" with. These folks are stuffing money up their coatsleeves so fast now it would make your head spin. Let the Social Worker know tomorrow that they are being reported for poor care.
Something is not right here as all medications, supplies and equipment are covered 100% under moms Medicare. My husband was under hospice care in our home for the last 22 months in our home and Medicare covered everything he needed, and he was on a lot of different medications. You need to call the hospice agency and talk to whoever is in charge of your moms team, as that should never be a problem. Good luck in getting things straightened out.

Have you asked your hospice coordinator about this?
