Unfortunately I didn't have a choice, Mother was in an assisted living facility before. Within a year they upped her medications to the tune of $500.00 a month. They were giving here meds that made her sleepy, which was supposed to be for her dizziness. How stupid. She was prone to falls. We took her home(long story) but when we got news hubby's job was taking him to Germany we had no choice, and with her dementia we had to. It was one of the hardest decisions.
She is well cared for. Our daughter lives nearby. As a nurse, she has visited the place and tells me she is impressed with her care. I believe we've been blessed.
Well, that is good. Not all situations are bad and we must not believe that. It is the few out there like this Suncoast Hospice Facility that are just out to kill someone rather than take care of someone. My husband's grandfather is in nursing home and is well cared for as well. Family goes by every day to make sure of it.
Thank you for sharing that story!!
It is so nice to hear of others blessings in such a sad time!
