This person is not my husband, but a family member. I do not have the POA and they will not allow the memory care unit give me any information. Most of the information I hear are blanket statements. I do not trust the staff at the unit. I believe they are over medicating the residents. There are red flags all over the place, and yes, they have been reported to the state. There is a small outdoor patio, enclosed by the walls of the building. It is overgrown, with a large tree and a lot of weeds, filled with dead leaves from last fall. I can take him out there, but it is not comfortable or inviting. I’m just wondering if others take their loved ones at for short periods of time.
