I’m the guardian for my sister who is bed ridden from a stroke. Probate Court requires a yearly report. What can the physician and Community nursing home provide me regarding the patient?
I created a summary of my observations and asked for weight and doctor short explanation on progress several times. The GP is not responding to my request and will not advise me date and time she will visit. I met her (1) time after 10 months. She examined my sis for approx. 5 minutes and was out the door. The RN’s who came twice per month were excellent with reports and meeting with me. BCBS approved nurses for 5 months only.
In my area, there aren’t many visiting physicians so I made an in person appointment with a specialist my sister was seeing before the stroke. But that is very time consuming with dressing, ambulance transport etc.
What is your experience with bed bound LO and physician exams?
