86 never had a diagnosis of Dementia she refuses to take any meds. She became combative last night scratching and slapping me. I was trying to get her not to drive off. She was leaving here because she was scared Trump was going to find her. She damaged her vehicle and drove away. We called 911 and she is in the Behavioral Health Ward.

In situations like this it maybe just a 72 hour hold to evaluate. My GFs father became violent at his AL and was in a Psychic hospital for a month to get the right combo of Meds. It can take 30 days before they know if a med works.

At this point, I would not take Mom back. I would probably find a good MC (private pay) or NH if no money with Medicaid.
