Saturday, Feb 11:  We met with the team yesterday at Stonebridge.  Now we know that mom is probably there through the 28th and then we'll have to move her to a different facility.  We have been calling assisted living facilities, but Stonebridge recommends a Senior Care facility...ie: nursing home.  We now have a listing of those places to call and visit.  They recommend the same type of care she's getting now with a nurse daily and people who can assist with the nebulizer/inhaler and medications.  So - the search continues, I hope to have some time in my next two days off to visit some of them.  Unfortunately, there are not that many that are as close to home as Stonebridge (they don't have any more room right now).  Mom understands that she'll go somewhere else until or if she can get strength back enough to regain some independence:  being able to get in and out of bed/chair, and use a walker.  We'll see.  Her goal is still to be able to come home.
