[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Where will the hospital discharge the patient to? Do they have people to handle it? This elderly person does not have his own residence or anyone capable of caring for him.[/quote] End up going to a low cost hell hole. [/quote] Do you have personal experience with this? [/quote] I do. Yes, this is what happens. The social worker tries desperately to guilt family members into more then they can do, and when that doesn’t work, they find placement in not-so-nice places because that’s what happens if there’s no $$[/quote] this person is correct. If you do not want to take the person, do not do it. Ignore the guilt. A friend of mine fell for it with an abusive mother and it was a living hell having her. If you want to take the family member, then by all means go for it, but make sure you know what you are getting into.[/quote]
