[quote=Anonymous]Longer term concern ~ what's her financial situation? I hope someone knows all the details. If she has any event that lands her in the hospital, you may need to consider insisting that she can not be released back home. That there is no support for her needs at home. The hospital then will work with you to find a place for her, suitable to her needs. But you've got to know how much money she has to you know how long the money is going to last. Or if you will need to look for a place that, eventually, will accept Medicaid as payment. Shorter term concern ~ For now, she is not of reasonable mind to get to decide this. "We had an aide coming eight hours a day but MIL was adamant she didn’t want outside help". If family is not going to be able to nurse her for 2-3 years, she needs help. Have someone take her to the doctor, explain the situation, and seek drs. orders for what is needed and a social worker to visit.[/quote]
