[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless she truly can't be left alone for a day, I'd drive everyone back and then come back on Monday. I also think you may be a little bit naive to the process of moving her to a higher level of care if you're just noticing it is needed. It is not going to take just a couple days. [/quote] This is what I would do. You can start the phone calls and inquiries for moving her without being there. [/quote] I need to take her to the doctor today, and I want to meet with her PT tomorrow. I know I won’t leave with a full plan, and I will need to come back, but I need to make some changes to ensure her safety before I go.[/quote] It’s Sunday. The doctor isn’t open.[/quote] The emergency room and urgent care are open on Sunday. [/quote] You don’t go to the ER or urgent care to discuss long term care plans for your aging mother.[/quote] OP here, My mother’s physician, who I reached by phone, suggested that based on what I found when I arrived, she be taken to the ER to see if a UTI or an infection was contributing to the relatively rapid decline in her strength, stamina and mobility, so we did so. Of course she will need other appointments while we figure out next steps, but this was the one she suggested we take immediately. Because of the need for urgent medical care, leaving and returning a few days later wasn’t an option. Hence my question about how to get my kids home.[/quote]
