My wife has terminal cancer and my mother is constantly making rude comments towards her. My mother is paranoid constantly about her surroundings. I just need some direction on getting her into some kind of home. My wife wants in home hospice when the time comes and I know my mother will make it difficult.

Tim, a bit of brutal honesty here. Your mom has dementia and is living in your home AND you wife has terminal cancer? Get your mother into a care facility asap. Apply for medicaid and get her elsewhere...in the meantime, is she getting antianxiety /antidepressant? If not, she should be. Im sure she is being agitated by tour wife's illness, but your wife and you deserve some peace.

Talk yo uour mom's doctor about the level of care she needs, i.e., Assisted Living or Nursing Home. Get mom on every waiting lust within a 50 to 100 mile radius. Explain your wife's condition to each facikity.

Your wife is a priority. Put your mom into a home. Call medicaid or medicare so they can refer you to a home for mom. If your mom is paranoid she needs to be watched 24-7 so she needs a nursing home.
