Tough Decisions = Tough Conversations

Tough Decisions = Tough Conversations

Posted by Cindy Laverty

Scenario: Your elderly loved one is in the hospital and has been diagnosed with a chronic condition. Due to the fact that he/she did not move around a lot during the hospital stay, the muscles have atrophied or weakened. It’s normal, right? Inevitably your loved one is going to go home…or is he? This is where it gets confusing and difficult. Your loved one wants to go home, but the doctors and hospital staff are telling you that a rehab facility is the next destination. So…what do you do?

You must have a conversation with the doctor first to learn all the reasons why going to a rehab facility is absolutely necessary. Watch this video because I’m going to tell you exactly what to do.
