[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I should clarify. I used to talk and FaceTime with mom daily. After the shutdowns a number of residents in her facility had Covid. Mom has tested negative. My dad told me moving forward he didn’t want mom on phone as it could be a source if infection. My brother agreed with dad. I keep asking when I would be allowed to Call and they have put it off. Today I flat out asked when and was told until Covid goes away. This could be a year. I said this is wrong and that is when I was
told if I forced this and if mom got Covid then I would be sued for interfering. So yes I could push this but I worry if mom does get Covid then I would be sued or at a minimum blames for her death. This is why I originally asked if anyone else was dealing with something like this and was not talking to family in memory care due to Covid.[/quote]

No one is going to sue you for interfering.  Call the nursing home and ask a nurse to let you speak to her.  Ignore them.  Who is going to sue you and reality is she is going to be exposed in group care.  You can talk on the phone or video and it sounds like there is more to this story.  Are you Dad and brother speaking to her?  You don't need to ask them when you can call.  You call.  Stop making a drama about it.[/quote]
