[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My SIL had this feedback for me.., When you know your mom is dying (and she was) don’t put her in rehab. They will force inappropriate PT/OT/drugs. Don’t bring her home you are not equipped to care for a dying person at home. Go to a hospice center. We did thankfully and Casey house was amazing, Make sure you are on all accounts even if you are power of attorney. Power of attorney end the moment they die. If you need their account to pay bills/funeral/etc you need to be on their account. Beneficiary overrides the will. Make sure all beneficiaries are the estate and not a person. [/quote] +1 to all of this and my Dad died at Casey House last month. We were mad at first that my stepmother didn’t let him go home - that’s what he wanted but she owns the house and had medical POA - but the facility was much better. Huge props to everyone there for the hard work they do.[/quote]
