Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
You can always switch, but if it's a matter of the faculty being short staffed, you may find the same or worse elsewhere.
Nursing home compare on Medicare.gov gives info like staff-to-patient ratios and safety inspection results but it doesn't give a full picture. See if tours are available.
Medicare follows the patient; there's no obligation to stay. Check the admission agreement for how to exit.
Calexanderl1, curious what you mean by "they have not properly taken care of her". Do you mean that Mom-in-Law has not improved?
My Mom was in rehab after a serious fall. The rehab was trying to get Mom to stand and walk again, but my Mom kept refusing to do what was needed. Thus, if I had moved her to another Rehab, she would have done the same thing.
I noticed on your profile, it shows your Mom being 65 years old. I bet that is your age. It's a common mistake with how the profile is set up.
Yes. Find a new SNF you want her to go to for the remaining time she has left for rehab. Speak to the admissions director there and see if s/he can help you by contacting MILs Medicare plan to get the process in motion to change SNFs. Get her doctor involved and on board to switch, too. Notify the director of the old SNF that MIL will be leaving and when and why. Arrange for the new SNF to come pick her up for the transfer to the new place.
I went thru it with my mom in 2019. I had her in the SNF from h e l l and had to get her OUT of there before they literally killed her. The admissions director at the new SNF was exceptional and orchestrated the whole thing for me with Medicare, pretty much...all the authorizations etc. They know more than we do about facilitating such changes, so ask for help. The new SNF I toured personally was a Lifecare Center in Denver which had great reviews and turned out to be a very good facility for rehab.
People are sent to rehab to work hard so they can get better. Some refuse to work hard, so they don’t get better. There’s always a rehab doctor in charge of the patient’s rehabilitation, and it might be good for you to talk to that doctor - not the aides, not the nurses, not the nice woman at the front desk or the therapists. The doctor can give you a better picture of what’s really going on.
