It is amazing how quickly things can change. One day you are looking forward to mom being able to get out of the Twin Cities and back to Rochester. And then you find out that their medical types will not clear her for transport. If there is anything I can tell those of you who will go through this in the future, do not let insurance force you into quick decisions. And do everything you can to research the options better. I knew what to expect from the hospice up there. It is widely regarded as one of the best in the State, with a long history of doing a very good job of caring for people in their final days. But we were not told that they are in the middle of a major rebuild, with half of their rooms down for construction, and their only open rooms are dual occupancy. Rochester got rid of dual occupancy rooms years ago, and mom’s mental health has suffered greatly in that environment. And there doesn’t appear to be anything I can do to fix the issue.
