carolinemcgaug, you need permission from the admins of this site to promote products. Instead, maybe tell us what herbs so that others can make their own and "cure" their Parkinsons without having to pay a for-profit supplement business? It's just herbs, right? So we should all have access to them in our grocery stores, kitchen or garden?

Is it a county nursing home?

First of all, the charge nurse is the supervisor of the CNA staff. So that would be the person to start with. Secondly, if your mother refuses hygiene care they will not force it on her.

As for never getting the same CNA. The CNA staff are not pets assigned to a resident. Most of them are probably part-time or contracted from homecare agencies. Staffing is up to the admiistration of any care facility.
