Hi Cindy. Thank you for sharing this with me. Apparently the insurance company does not want to lose money on the time paid for the nursing home. My husband and mom have been battling with the insurance company to no avail. I will only agree to home healthcare for any surgeries requiring special help in the future. My mom just freaked out about being in charge of the iv antibiotics and our neighbor went on and on about how a nursing home would make everything easier for everyone. I sure am tired of learning everything the hard way. The good news is the staff is being much better here with pain meds and checking in on me because I’m looking pretty rough and pitiful at the moment. When I’m bad off, I can hardly speak. I think I need to break down and ask to see a pain management doctor. I just dread it because my dad ended up on a morphine pain pump and it seems like giving up. Keep me in your prayers. Reading your message makes me feel like I’m not alone.
