[quote=Anonymous]My mom is in a memory care facility. She has physical issues and mild cognitive impairment. She is there because my dad forced this. I have young kids and no band with to fight. My brother works for dad and goes along with this plan. We have not been able to see mom due to Covid rules and I understand esp since several residents have been sick with this and have died. Mom does not have phone in room. Prior to Covid she would use facility phone and also FaceTime with a computer assisted by a nurse on their laptop. She didn’t want cell phone (Too confusing) and Dad said too difficult to have phone in room. I think he is worried she will call too much. Tomorrow is Mother’s Day and I have not been able to talk to mom and I have told brother that this has to change and he and dad say no. I said she needs to have communication and they say no that with Covid it is too dangerous. Is anyone else with a parent who has cognitive decline not talking to them in memory care? Advise?
