Bobbi and Mike provide some helpful insights for the following caregiver's issue on today's episode of Tips, Truths, and Straight Talk:
"I'm in a bit of a dilemma, my mom, who has dementia, went into the hospital last week for internal bleeding. The hospital wants to discharge her, and I said no. She was in ICU, intubated and restrained and now seems worse and started sundowning. They said if I don't pick her up, they will call Adult Protective Services on me. I don't know what to do. I work full time and now she can barely walk. Any advice? "
Interesting and informative guests will join us on the 2nd and 4th Wednesday of every month. On the opposite Wednesdays, we will provide straight talk about what people need to know before and after caregiving begins, including controversial issues others tend to avoid.
