I need help with getting a prescription for home aide. My mother's doctor is out of the country for the next month. She has been having meltdowns, refusing to change her diaper, refusing to do anything for herself, fighting me on everything, and has been as cold as ice towards me for 13 years. She has burned me every chance she gets. She had a social worker show up at my house because of the crazy things she says about me. It's that bad and she has cost me a couple of relationships. She is toxic and I can't get her hooks out of my back. I've tried everything, now I'm done. She refuses to leave, refused Medicaid, I'm certain her only goal is to make me miserable. I have to have someone else come in and deal with her. Who can I call to make a house visit?

IF she is living with you, evict her.
IF you are living with her, leave.
IF you are underage call Child Protective Services.
There is a lot of information on the site about removing people from your home (briefly, start an eviction notice), or refusing to take them back from hospital (refuse, don’t get talked into it by a social worker, tell the social worker to find a placement). It would help if you could search for some of the existing information. Click on Care Topics on the top right of the screen, use the magnifying glass to search, get your head around the basics, and then ask again for suggestions.
The last thing you need is home care. That perpetuates her living in your home, and you’re burnt out. The best thing for both of you is for her to go to a facility where they know how to deal with patients this sick.
Talk to the social workers at the hospital. Tell them that you will no longer need living with her to provide care and that she requires placement.
