[quote=Anonymous]I think one alternative is to hire an outside service and discontinue the facility-based service. My mom has a visiting nurse who charges by the hour to take her to doctors' appointments, refill her meds boxes, etc. I do think it's worth asking the question of what meds she's on and whether she really needs to be on all of them. I don't know whether she discussed her wishes before the Alzheimer's diagnosis, but there's the question of whether she would want the quantity of her life prolonged at the expense of its quality.
