Not sure what to do !!!

Yes mum has a alarm alert @BlueBay , @Jacques which she did use when she had her fall xxxc

Yes @BlueBay I think it is too early for her to come home too xx

@Shaz51 it's a while ago now but Dad had an OT assessment for aids and equipment at home (walker, rails etc), community social programs (he wasn't interested), help with shopping and housework and respite. I got him a wearable personal alarm too. He exhausted himself trying to do chores while I was at work and didn't

allow himself quiet time reading & watching TV. He badly missed my mother. Everyone's different and in any relationship particularly one of dependence and care there has to be a lot of trust on both sides that things are working out. If your mum has a fracture she'll be very fragile and needing nursing care, she's very unlikely to be mobile. She'll be needing a lot more personal care and lifting could be difficult. I think her diagnosis and prognosis will come first before you can make decisions about home care and whether you'll need support services. You'll also need to be realistic about what you can manage given your health and upcoming dialysis.

Lots of love to you and yours @Shaz51 this is a significant life stage for you all. It could be a good idea to write things down... eg use SWOT (list strengths weaknesses opportunities and threats) to help your decisions.

Very true @Dimity xoxo

Thank you @outlander

Yes seeing mum today and telling her she is not ready to come home as we are still working and will be not home for up to 6 hours

I told her we need some help , the OT is coming tomorrow

@Dimity , @BlueBay , @Jacques , @tyme , @Former-Member

I was not very liked by my mum today @tyme , @Former-Member , @Dimity , @Jacques , @BlueBay , @moderator

Hugs @Shaz51 I think you're making the right call. Hope the OT and medical team tomorrow are helpful.

Me too @Dimity , mum can not do things for herself so how is she going to do them on her own at home xx

@Shaz51 true. Also there's @outlander 's suggestion re finding out how My Aged Care can help after the hospital depending on what the OT says...

Hope your aunties and cousins are able to help reassure your mum...

We’re here supporting you sis @Shaz51

Agree with @Dimity @outlander

My aged care are a great service. Helped us a lot with MIL at the time.
it’s not an easy time my friend

I know

hugs xxxxooo
