Nursing home question

[Taylorlovestravis]

My dear MIL has just moved into a home who said they could care for her (she is 5 years into Alzheimer’s diagnosis which has progressed rapidly this year). A week in they say they will not be able to care for her if she keeps on wandering around opening fire doors. DH is going to visit ASAP and poor FIL is very upset as the whole thing has obviously been distressing anyway, but surely that’s part and parcel of looking after someone with advanced Alzheimer’s? God this is hard.

Ps this is a home we trusted as they took great care of another relative.

DGM started off in a nursing home that did offer some dementia care but there came a time where their care wasn’t enough and she had to move to a specialist dementia care home where staff have more training & better ratios for looking after dementia patients.
DF went straight into a specialist dementia care home as a nursing home wouldn’t have been at all suitable.
Were her needs/behaviours understated? Is it a nursing home that already looks after patients with Alzheimer’s?
I’m so sorry, I know how upsetting this must be, but if they don’t feel they can keep her and other residents safe they have no choice but to say she needs to be elsewhere. It is so hard.

So sorry @Taylorlovestravis. How are things now? She's bound to be more unsettled with the move but it doesn't sound as though the home is coping.

What sort of hind is it?

I would have thought this would be part and parcel of looking after someone with dementia. Do they have an advanced dementia care unit?
