Hello again
Well today, I found out that the care staff don't want me in the room when they are changing mom. There has not been any problems for the last several months. I guess they are worried that I might been judging them, secretly watching them on how they are doing or if they are treating my mother with respect or are they abusing her. Is that why they don't want me in the room when they change her.
I really don't know what the deal is. I will be speaking with them concerning this. I am her son and she is my mother. If I choose to be in the room, that is my business.
And I will not let mom sit in her own filth as they do. If I find out she is sitting in a mess, I will change her myself.
I made mom a home cooked meal today and she just loved it. I can't believe that she ate the whole thing. I can, actually. I am a great cook. And compared to the crap they serve. McDonalds is better. And I hate McDonalds.
I have not mentioned, until now, where the food comes from. Is is made in Toronto, frozen and then shipped to Vancouver, where it is re-heated and then served to the residents. Isn't this just great.
They PGT keeps telling me that the home serves nutritious meals and it is up to them to give her the nutrition she needs. You would think so, wouldn't you. But how can anything be good if it is cooked and processed on the other side of the country. Really!
And putting mom to bed on Sunday's right after her bath, has to stop. As it is they don't get mom up and into her chair until noon and I put her to bed at 6 pm.
