My mom is constantly asleep during the week, on weekends she is wide awake , doing word finds, watching movies etc...
It was not til this past week where the home care taker came while I was giving Mom breakfast as I called in sick for work. She suddenly asked if I had given her medications.. I replied no, she is still having breakfast..
I hate to even think this but did cross my mind home care taker may be giving her a sedative, making her sleep all day..
Is there a blood work test her Neurologist can ask for and maybe see
if in fact she is being given something or not? Please help and thank you in advance.
Please come back and tell us if its found Mom is being given something. Actually, aides are not suppose to handle medications.
