Please hit me up with your best tips to gelp her navigate the first fee days.
i’m going to drive up to transfer her from hospital to the care home.( I live a 7 hour tound trip away.) I’ll stay locally for a night or two to run errands for her and help her settle in. Unfortunately my family is dysfunctional and of course it’s all kicking off. One particular family member’s behavior is just awful.
i’ve ordered a range of labels for her clothes and personal belongings. I’ve bought her some new nightwear and a new dressing gown. And later on I’m going yo the supermarkrt to shop dor touketries, notepad, pen, tissues etc.
The care home we’re hoping to get will confirm later today. My younger sister viewed it on Saturday and seems to think it fits the bill. Although she was in my opinion too focused on the hair salon and beauty parlour. My mum is keen to go to the care home and she’s been in hospital for 3 weeks. .
I’d be grateful for any help/advice as it looks likely to happen very quickly if they agree to take her.
