Cak I am sorry I am not really good with this stuff is Social Services the same as Social Security forgive my ignorance but they have so many agencies and the names all sound alike after a while and I don't want to waste time tracking down the wrong one. Or is Social Services the old Welfare department with a new name. Mamawatkins73

I have been accepted at a couple of senior living complexes in another state. The thing that drives me crazy is there's a waiting list, and I have had some falls which resulted in debilitating injuries. I DON'T FEEL LIKE WAITING MY TURN! I just want to butt in line. I am also considering going to a senior center on alternating Tuesdays of each month, but it won't be in the city I live in; I will go to where I used to live. The city where I currently live, I don't like it, and I wish it would get erased off the map

CAK, next fall and hospitalization tell the social worker of the unit that you are not able to care for yourself and a open slot in assisted will be found for you. Request rehab to try to regain strength so you may feel better about returning home. There are ways to butt in line, but they will only happen if justified by medical staff.

I hope if I have to go off to a rehab facility that I can bring my cat with me; I don't like to leave him at home by himself. He wasn't a happy camper today about being nudged off my tummy when I was surfing the web; he went in the bedroom and sulked; I had to apologize to him, and he liked that. He let me rub him behind the ears like he normally does, and he gives me that contented look on his sweet face

Give me some other ways that I can butt in line. I DON'T FEEL LIKE WAITING MY TURN; THIS IS RIDICULOUS!
