Hello All,
Just wanting to ask what information one would expect when going to visit, as next of kin and PoA, from nurses and staff at the nursing home? I visit as much as I possibly can, but find myself leaving with more questions that I arrived with. Staff are busy of course, and my nature is naturally to work things out alone, or to be of least trouble to anyone as I can be. The manager of the home has an open door policy but it has felt 'awkward' the odd occasion I have tried to speak to her; the deputy is very short and to the point which leaves me with more concerns because I am never able to voice the things that matter. I feel cut off and of no conseqeunce. They knew from the outset that I wished to be kept fully involved, yet I am not being. My life cannot move forward without this.
Is there something wrong with me, them, or both?
