Mom is in a ward room (4 people) and sometimes it is just unbearable. I've noticed that staff has placed a basket of charcoal in the room and they really do try to stay on top of incontinence problems. Air fresheners with strong scents (and bringing in a bucket of bleach lol) are obviously not an option, does anybody have anything that may help?
I've heard of people becoming nose blind. Maybe, the staff aren't aware of the severity. There is a way to avoid lingering, terrible odors, because some facilities don't have them.
I'm still getting a feel for the place, there are times when I've been there that the smell is much less noticeable, hopefully the truly nasty times are not that frequent.
