last week linear bruise on inside of moms left thigh, this week a bruise on inside of right thigh, and yesterday there was a torn open depend on floor between the bed and nightstand. My mind jumps to the worst thoughts, but this could happen for lots of reasons. Showering, dressing, toileting, falling (recent fall out of bed last week). And the depend did not look soiled so mom could have pulled it off herself. Thoughts?
I, too, am interested in how your mother is now.
Have a chat with the D.O.N., ask if there is a new employee. Ask if there is anyone, such as a resident, allowed to wander into her room. Request that Mom's dignity be protected by having only female aides change her. Make a gentle (or in-house report), have the D.O.N. keep an eye out. Ask her for her advice.
Ask if they can have a temporary baby monitor in her room.
If you have stronger suspicions, have her examined and a rape kit performed.
