My Mum is in a community hospital, she was transferred from main hospital following a fall (nothing broken), once she had been declared 'medically fit'. She has Dementia but have been waiting over two months for the full diagnosis. They are organising a mental capacity assessment at this hospital, as she will need either a care package putting in place or maybe going into residential care. She has cancelled previous care packages, as she thinks she doesn't need any help. (She has fallen before). She was in good spirits in the first hospital and was pleasant with me and all the staff. Now, when she sees me, she throws a tantrum and shouts at me, ' I hope you are here to take me home at last' and ends up crying and begging to go home. She can't remember why she even ended up there and feels we are all keeping her there against her will, and has threatened to kill herself. Q. Is it right to force her to go into a home, even though she is at risk, should I grant her, if I can, her last wish, providing she agrees to carers? But, I know that she will cancel them again. I feel retched at the thought of agreeing for her to go into care.
