Mom has a professional fiduciary. In a Feb, 2013 quarterly summary her case manager said "She is likely in moderate dementia." In a Jun, 2013 quarterly summary, her case manager said "She continues to do well, is happy and generally in good health, although her dementia is progressing." Mom has been placed with one of my siblings and has been there for 10-months, after having spent 16-months with another sibling. Prior to this sibling hostile takeover, I had been Mom's "right hand" for everything for a very, long time - years. I haven't seen Mom in more than 2-years, primarily due to litigation. (Way to many details to get into!) I want to have her stay with me for 6-weeks. Case manager recommends 10-days. After providing her with information she didn't have, the case manager now says "Your mother has a routine, which is also flexible to accommodate her, as mood or willingness also fluctuate."
Any thoughts on this? Thank you for your input.
When setting all this up ask about her routine and what you can change from and what you cannot. With my MIL some change from her routine can cause some really bad days. Other things do not seem to matter. Either way the more you work with the Case manager (respect on both sides) the more likely you will get what you want - within reason of course. I'm assuming you have a reasonable case manager and minimal crazy drama.
