My mother who is 80, was in hospital for couple weeks after some falls.
Recommended to go to step down care in nursing home as she was unable to care for herself at home alone
4 weeks nursing home care was covered by HSE
She is in isolation in the nursing home at the moment.
As HSE funding is up this week, the nursing home will discharge her, unless we sign up for 1000 euro per week.
2 things...
With the current situation, I'm not sure I want her to be in the nursing home as we know there are clusters and she is vulnerable
Im thinking that I bring her home to her own house and care for her daily (my house has kids)
Or is she safer in the nursing home??
If she is... is there any consideration around costs at this stage?
She (we) cant afford a grand a week... and as previous... not sure if its the right thing
