Who is caring for her at home? Are the caregivers the ones who want to send her to a NH?

If the caregivers are burned out, then there is really no choice.

She is CHF and can't stand or walk on her own. It takes two people to help her to potty chair and that is now getting almost too hard. It is a bedside commode.

She is competent and wants to die at home. Her son has POA and does all he can. She is bed ridden at this point and the biggest challenge is getting her on the pot for BM other than that she has catheter and doesn't get up. Yes it is so close to end :(

Who has her POA's? Is she competent? If she is so close to the end of her life that hospice is prescribed why would they even consider moving her at this point?

If she is competent she can make her own decisions. If not the POA USUALLY has the power to choose and move her to an appropriate facility.
