[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP again and shut down talk of relocating him. Too complicated, expensive and too great a stress on all involved. Truth is, even in skilled nursing, the resident is alone and only sees a nurse to get vitals checked, meds delivered, perhaps meals delivered to the room, dressed and undressed and basic ADL to include toileting in a.m. and p.m. Anything else they must ring the call bell - and that’s often ignored for a shockingly long time. My mom fell in the skilled nursing unit in private bathroom - shattered her pelvis and sat on the floor in the dark crying and by all accounts waited 10 minutes for a response. Then a nurse wandered in and tried to move her/urged her to pull to a stand. Rescue squad called by another nurse. All this to say my mom was in a “fancy” Sunrise facility - you don’t get what you pay for.[/quote] I am so sorry that happened![/quote]
