She has had substandard care at the nursing home. She fell in July and broke her neck. The PT was nonexistent. She was put on Hospice Monday. I want to bring her home and have her die surrounded by love ones. I would hire nurses and she’d be on hospice. I took care on my BFF I’m my home on hospice for over a year. I know the drill. She’s going fast. Can I legally do this?
Have everything you want in writing ✍and notarized b 4 we have 2 b handled by others that do not have the best interest for the ending ..
My mother pancreatic cancer did her funeral 😔 but wanted to go home 🏡 😪 and was told no ..
I still today suffer from her not getting her last wish ...
comfort as you go through your mother's transition ...
Please put your Mother in the centre of this decision.
Will it be better for your Mother to move at this time?
Can you get Mom home safely, with all the correct gear, so she can be kept comfortable & there is adequate care staff? Plus adequate support for you?
Wanting her to come home is a natual reaction - a thought based on love ❤️
Love + practical matters are required.
If you can't bring her home it will not in ANY way diminish how you much you love her. It just isn't always meant to be. No guilt!
Peace to you at this hard time 🕊️
You should speak to the hospice provider about how this gets done. They know how to get her home to die.
Praying it all works out for moms best. God bless you.
If your are her legal advocate, then you can make decisions that are in her best interests that she would want. I don't see why hospice couldn't be set up in your home. That's what we did with my FIL dying of cancer. I'm so glad he was surrounded by family in his own home.
The PT may have been "non-existent" because perhaps a DNR and other health care directives was signed by her (or her legal advocate) when she entered the facility. I'm so sorry she fell and now has to endure this. May you receive peace in your heart.
