Wife with severe dementia has been in skilled nursing facility for two years. Was just discharged from Hospice because no recent deterioration: no weight loss, PPS holding at 30% and still eating 50% of meals. Sleeping 16-18 hours/day. Would like to get her back on Hospice ASAP. Suggestions? (Have noticed she is slumping to the right in her wheelchair where she is confined during day.)
The good folks at your wife's nursing facility can do all of that, plus watch for any signs of decline.
So for now just enjoy whatever time you may have left with your wife, and don't hesitate to bring hospice back on board when your wife is showing more decline and really needs them.
Slumping is tge Dementia. She could be propped up with pillows or get her a
Mom also slumped to one side as the disease progressed.
