Hi everyone. Been a while since I posted. Trying to get to grips with Mum going into a care home!! That is a whole separate subject so wanted to ask anyone who might know please?
I'm going on holiday for 2 weeks. My 2 sisters visit as well as me but I visit for longer and more often. I have tea with Mum once a week and once a week she comes to dinner with my hubby and I. I go in 3 times a week for a long time and they each go in twice a week.
They won't do any extra while I'm away so my question is can I ask the staff at the care home to perhaps take her out or something and offer to pay extra hours to them?
I only ask because when I went away for a week in January, mum took to get bed and didn't want to get up,
When mum was in her own home I used to pay people to go in more often if I was away and wondered if that could still be an idea?
Any thoughts or suggestions gratefully received
Many thanhs
