Hi All
Can someone tell me the difference between an EMI unit and a dementia unit.
I think the time is rapidly approaching when I will have to be looking at other care for Mum and that means Dad also, because no way could I separate them.
Mum has not responded well to risperidone, so that med, has now ceased, but she is soo anxious now, that she is gasping for breath and it is so upsetting to observe and I think so very cruel for her to suffer such anxiety.
The care home where they are now, have a dementia unit within the complex, but it is on the second floor and Mum is frightened in lifts, so I have been looking online at other alternatives, but some say EMI and some dementia.
What should I be looking at?
Thanks
