Mom is in home hospice care, she lives with us, and has three CNA visits a week for showers and eyeballs on for any issues. One RN visit a week for vitals and a chat. Occasional chaplain visits and doctor virtual visits. Medicare funds it.

We have a small local hospice provider, they are wonderful. Wonderful.

There probably is a state agency here in NY for that, but I’m not sure I want the gub-mint driving. Next thing you know we’d have to completely remodel the interior of her home to allow her to stay there. So we’re using referrals to find the good ones. It takes some trial and error.

Mrs. ArGee and I have had discussions about how sustainable this model is. Mrs. ArGee is handling things but it stresses her greatly. So I think at some point we’re either going to have to move into M-I-L’s home, which has one set of issues, or move her in with us back in the Wildlands. That second might kill her early as she doesn’t handle change well.
