[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m going to take the advice from the county employee I spoke with even though it’s difficult and the law doesn’t always make sense. I can’t protect people from themselves. I am willing to accept that. But I appreciate your sentiment, PP. I hope at some point she takes me up on my offer.[/quote] Did you talk with this county employee in person or simply on the phone? At least consider consulting with an elder care attorney. And keep good records of all your communications about this issue. The way you’ve described the situation, this isn’t just a maintenance issue. It involves the health and physical safety of your parents. [/quote] Over the phone. I’m not aware of an in person option for consulting/assistance with these issues where they live. The employees are informed regarding the local laws however.[/quote] It would not hurt to get advice from an attorney who specializes in elder issues. Most likely better advice than from a county employee who may not have fully comprehended that you are talking about bats infesting the house. Do you know what qualifications the county employee has? It is surprising that the county would suggest staying out of it when your parents are in danger in their own home. [/quote]
