Mom lives in Ky. I live in Pa. And brother and sister in Ca. Mom is 81, currently in the hospital. Now this is a crises move. I have steps, my sister does not. Mom lives in a senior apartment. Please help me think what are our options. My sister retired, but has a new business and works from home. I'm self-employed and work from home. My only concern is the steps which she crawled up the last time she visited. Both of us would take her until she can get a senior apt.
My gosh if your Mom had to crawl up the steps to your home, would she want to do that on a regular basis? Can she walk down the steps or would she need to scoot?
Whenever an elder moves in one's home, the home has to be elder proof and elder comfortable. How mobile is your Mom other than the steps?
If it were me, I would see if Mom could return to her apartment and hire a caregiver for the short term, until a senior apartment opens up in your area.
