Mom did a urine test and said it is really dark and The specific gravity is 1.035. Sister won't take her to the doctor and said it is probably a UTI and is calling for a virtual CVS visit tomorrow to get antibiotics. Mom is early 90s and has dementia. Can i call EMS from another state to have them take her to the hospital for checkup of this
Second, this is a first for me on this forum.

I think it would be extremely irresponsible for a nurse practitioner (which is generally who staffs these clinics) to prescribe an antibiotic for a 9O year-old but it is legal.
When my son had norovirus and was having a hard time keeping fluids in, she said to give him a tablespoon of Gatorade (or any electrolyte) every 15 mins.
If she had covid, it's very possible she's dehydrated, and maybe she's lost her sense of smell like I did afterwards, which kills your appetite. She could have a UTI.
If she went to Urgent Care would your Mom keep an IV in? She would benefit from an IV for sure. I don't know if you can call 911 from another state... If your sister won't even take her to the doctor what makes you think she'll let your Mom go in an ambulance?
