My Mum has now been in the care home for 4 weeks, understandably she is struggling to settle. So, we’ve been through acceptance, confusion and now we seem to be on angry. When I was in yesterday she was furious, was asking me ‘what’s going on’. I always just say to her that’s she’s staying there ‘for now’, however this didn’t pacify her, she can look after herself, just take her home etc. I did try to distract and divert but in the fact end said that I had to go to get my hair cut, so she wasn’t speaking to me as I left.
I’m going tomorrow and am anticipating the same line of questions, how do I deal with this when she’s so adamant? Any tips please?
