Why the attacks from all sides I do not understand? Just shut up right because my experiences are different? Not all doctors and nurses are angels. Next you'll tell me we don't have issues in nursing homes right?
Yes there can be dreadful nursing home. Every single occupation has good bad and indifferent.
However there are some amazing nursing homes out there .
Mum was not capable of being home alone and before you berate me for being an inconsiderate daughter there is only so many times she could run out of the house dressed inappropriately, only so many times she could call the police , only so many times her neighbors had to deal with her screaming, only so many times I could go to the hospital at 12 am 1 am 2 am 3 am either because she was admitted due to above mentioned issues or dad had had a fall and the ambulance, rightly so , believed mum incapable of staying home alone. So daughter aka me would go over, my incredible husband would accompany me as well.
When Dad did pass mum decided that she couldn't stay at home alone, so she moved into a nursing home near me at Bexley. In the two and a half years mum lived there she thrived and her physical health actually improved . Note mum had care givers Monday to Friday when she and Dad were at home.
Huntingdon was incredible. She certainly tested their patience and lol their operation procedures regarding exiting the building. Mother would put in her Burberry long coat, her Ferragamo shoes and start talking with a visitor who was leaving. Mother could be elegance personified. She was also much fitter whilst in there and could outrun quite a few of them . She could also hurl abuse, throw things, throw cutlery , scream non stop .
The staff took it and would be very calm with her. I did visit at various times from 5 am to 11 pm just to check it was the way it was done there.
Are you concerned your inheritance may go ? Because the amazing nursing homes do usually have large bonds ? Mother's did. Though it was of course refunded once she passed.
For mum's end of life .... That home was incredible. I could be there in less than 15 minutes as depending on peak hour.
