Four of us moved Mom out of her house that is infested with mice and disgustingly dirty. We cleaned and moved enough furniture to set up a clean safe environment. The next day my brother who is also living in filth went to the facility ate breakfast in the dining room and walked Mom out the door with only her handbag. We called the police and the senior care crisis. Everyone says she doesn’t have to go back to the facility against her will. She is unsafe, there are rodents and the house is filthy with clutter every where. All four of us walked away after hours of dealing with this and getting nowhere. My mother smelled of Poop and urine showing no signs of getting cleaned up and the house had almost no furniture. When pressed for a plan my brother refused to answer claiming to be the “smartest person in the room.”
I would also call your local Area Agency on Aging and have them come out and do an evaluation and needs assessment.
Also, how well do you know mom's doctor? It sounds like there may have been a medical reason why she had to be moved into AL in the first place. Maybe he/she (doctor) could write a letter recommending AL level of care due to whatever issues she has that necessitate assistance. I'd let their office know what is going on too, and see what they can do.
