My mother has been acting and feeling worse this time after coming home from the hospital. She will not take a certain medication which would help her. She is slowly losing strength. Unable to sit up on edge of bed now as it has been over a week since she done so and it was with my help. She could do a bed bath herself with some help from me. Now she won't let me even try to bath her when I ask. She gets mad. This past week she started having loose BMs. It has gotten a little worse each day. Doctor wants to test for cdiff since she took so many antibiotics. I really don't think it is that as there is no fever.

So the doctor said to make sure she drinks water. Well she isn't. She has also stopped letting me pull her up in the bed. Says it messes up her diaper and hurts. I told her next time I'll pull her up before changing her (I think she will just slide back down).

I'm getting to where I don't know what to say to her anymore. She takes everything the wrong way. She doesn't want home health or PT coming. She was telling me to tell PT not to come and I told her no she has to do it. She did but they still wanted to check on coming the following week. She first said yes and then no. She calls them "my buddies" that I talk and laugh with them. Wish I could laugh some. Me and her just can't get along with each other anymore. She says a lot of things to me and I just keep my mouth shut. If I do say anything it is just taking up for myself. I mean some stuff is just out right mean. She called me a bitch the other night. I never thought she would say something like that. Home health wants a mental health nurse to see her. I'm thinking it would be a good idea. She has always been this way to a point but got much much worse after the hospital/rehab stays the past 4 months.

Just needing to get it off my chest so to speak. I'm worried about her and she takes it as being hateful when I try to get help. Never thought it would be like this with her.

I hope it is okay to post here. I am wondering if anyone has used Enoble or Your Health Organizaion?

When my mother left the hospital the home health put her with Your Health. They talk a very good game and seemed to offer so much. Came the day of the video call and they could not even get it to work. They wanted a "faciliator" to come out to show me (who has had plenty of televisits) how to do the video call. I've read many comments and seems they have a rep of billing for visits that don't happen and/or sending out nurses multiple times a week. Thus sending a facilitor and then her doing a visit with provider... two billings there. My mother doesn't need that.... she has enough with home health. She keeps saying she wants to be left alone.
Has anyone used them?

Went to Cardinal Family Health and they offered what we thought was needed but only televisit no coming to the home. That was okay as long as home health could do orders. Well they are not doing those so it seems.

So.... what about Enoble? Anyone used them?

My mother is bed bound. She is wanting to go to her doctor 45 minutes away. It would be so hard on her to do transport. She won't let me find another doctor closer... atleast not now. Would greatly appreicate any help.
