[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I stayed with my mom 10-12 hours a day when she was in the ER and 8-10 hours a day when she was in rehab. And it was still a gigantic cluster, even with me advocating for her. She doesn't recall the hospital OR the rehab place. Almost seems like a waste of my time, since she didn't realize I was there and I'm not actually sure she got better care with me there. [/quote] She might not remember it, but unless she was in very specialized care, she almost certainly got better care with a family member there observing. I had two transplants and due to Covid, I wasn’t allowed visitors for one. The same unit and mostly the same nurses, aides, etc. The quality of care was much better when I had visitors. No one stayed 24 hours, for the other transplant, but the drop in ability helped motivate the staff I think.[/quote]
