    Thanks. How about psuedo-bulbar affect in dementia hospice patients? Do you know of any treatments, besides complete sedation.

    • @TheHospiceCarePlan
      @TheHospiceCarePlan 3 дні тому

      Care is ALWAYS the first step and then the minor medications for calming but sometimes the only way to gain control is sedation - especially for physical agitation. It is the most difficult symptom to control but there are new meds out there that are really helpful - Rivastigmine patch that goes into the skin, Haloperidol "liquid needles" - a compounding liquid version that is absorbed through the skin - these for patients whom you can't get close to or are unwilling /unable to take oral medications.

    Years ago i was in a coma for a few weeks, my muscles atrophied and i had to wear briefs for some months. The facility i was in had freezing cold AC. I can tell you that while getting changed was a bit demeaning it was nothing compared to being wet and cold. It is miserable way to wake up. Thank goodness that my goal was moving towards independence. 2009 was a very humbling year

    You girls are amazing. My Mum was diagnosed with metastatic breast cancer and vascular dementia 18 months ago. It has spread to her bones and we found out 3 weeks ago it has spread to her liver. They have given her 2 weeks to 2 months to live. When she moved into our house she could walk, now she is bedridden. This video has just made my life so much easier. Mum didn't want to go into a nursing home and as she had such little time, we wanted her around family and loved ones. It is so emotional but we are getting there. The worst thing is her lack of knowing what's going on, she doesn't understand cancer. We are telling her she is getting better everyday and just making her happy.

    Family caregivers are also opioid naive in many ways, not just taking it. I am struggling with the decision to give my mom with later stage dementia the short acting morphine, preconceived idea it’s for “the final” hours only and can’t wrap my head around that maybe it would help some back pain I thinks she’s having (because she can’t verbalize her pain exactly) as she is so stiff and has lost weight that the spine bones stick out somewhat.

    • @TheHospiceCarePlan
      @TheHospiceCarePlan 9 днів тому

      You are having a very healthy respect for the medication and in our culture today, opiods have many negative comments out there but for someone who has pain or shortness of breath - acute or chronic - they are the path to relief which allows life attention to be on the joy of living and connection. Even a tiny dose can offer improvement and is NOT dangerous. Try a dose and sit with you mom for 30 minutes. I always tell my families and patients... the worst thing that can happen is that they feel good enough to forget about the pain - or even just take a painfree nap. Please ask you team. Patients who can't speak or identify pain are common - trust your gut. Yopu know your mom - if she looks uncomfortable - moans, groans, grimaces etc - believe it! Please get out booklet!

    My question is, what if the patient cannot move at all? Atleast he could move. My question again is, what if the patient cannot move?

      The patient will not be able to be gotten out of bed - or a hoyer lift will need to be used. We have a video coming up just about this. Sometimes a patient becomes bedbound....

    Good instruction video, but lift the bed up for yourself, you work with a bended back! Relax and take time for your client. From 00:52 your could save your spine from 3 minutes of endurance.

      Well of course - we couldn't raise the bed for the video based on the angle of the camera but you're totally right! Save the back. Thanks for watching and keep us in your focus.

    Not true with Halifax Hospice in Daytona Beach. They refused to pay for my lo thyroid medication and said we would have to pay out of pocket for it. They only wanted to give her Ativan. They said she was actively dying. Don’t feed her even though she was hungry. That was back in Oct 2023. We asked them to leave and she’s alive and well today.

      Sorry but you misunderstood what I said... Hospice pays for every medication that is related to the ADMITTING TERMINAL DIAGNOSIS and every medication used for COMFORT. Often times patients are taking medications for other diseases that are not related to causing or contributing to the terminal condition. Medicare doesn't pay for those meds and they are generally obtained exactly the way they were prior to hospice. Thanks for your comment - I will do another video to clarify that. and....Thanks for watching and keep us in your focus.

      You could and that would be > than standard practive. The entire groin has been populated by bacteria but the uretra should be clean - urine is sterile. If you start from a sterile field and go to a contaminated one, you're good to go! Thanks for the comment. Thanks for watching and keep us in your focus.

    Being from out of State..from two News sources said a Patient is allowed to take the medication cross the State border to their own home state and ingest the medicine in the comfort of their own home when it's needed. Is this correct? I Hope so! ❤️

      I don't knoe the law of every state but it is NOT the law in Oregon and Ca. People have moved from one state to another to be able to use MAID. Please ck the law of your own state and thanks for your question. Thanks for watching and keep us in your focus.

    What happens if you lose grip and that person starts to slip and they fall? SHAME ON YOU for not using a gate belt! Your nurses for crying out loud! A gate belt gives you a good grip that you’re not going to drop the patient! That’s patient care 101! Please remove this video and redo it with the gate belt for the sake of all the people that are going to get hurt or their family members!

      I'm watching this video because I need to know how to do this tomorrow for an elderly relative who started hospice today. She doesn't have a gait belt yet and we don't know when it will arrive. This is exactly the video I need.
