My mother is in a nursing home and Area of Aging is her guardian. They have kept me from seeing my mother since March. I went to the nursing home to take my mother for the day, they informed me that I couldn't take her. I was very upset about the situation and I was told to leave or I would be arrested. Prior to my mother's stroke she resided with me. What can I do to see her and is this legal to do?
Yes, if we had been given this info at the time of posting, our answers would have been different and more helpful.
I also think you need to talk to the person who was assigned to Mom. Sorry, but you no longer make the decisions for Mom, the guardian assigned does. You should understand what you can and can't do. If you stay within those boundries, you should be able to visit Mom. But remember, you are not able to get any info on her care. This u will need to ask the guardian about. You cannot complain to the staff, you will just be a visitor. There is no way you or anyone would be able to take Mom out. This would have to be OKd by the guardian.
To have any rights, you have to abide by them. The Government is now in control and for a reason.
I would talk with the guardian (AAA) to ask what you need to do to be able to see mom.
