A Jerry McGuire Moment

Do you ever have a “Jerry McGuire” moment?
The one … that puts it out there?
Places your soul ahead of your ambitions? 
Well … my friends … that is what I am about to write. So if you are amongst the safe … and road … more traveled… please unfriend me now.
I am OVER ... skilled nursing facilities and rehab centers (aka Nursing homes) and grown children … who haphazardly place them there. 
YOU really think that by spending $6000 plus a month to “kennel” your folks … that they are taken care of properly?
This might be good for you … but … without your constant intervention… this can be catastrophic for your loved one.
PLEASE … PLEASE… PLEASE … get and stay involved with them daily.
Make sure that their needs are being met.
YOU or your loved one is footing the bill … so … YOU are IN CHARGE … not some employee who says … “we’ll look into that” or … even worse … unresponsive.
YOU ... are your loved one’s BEST Health Advocate!
OK … I feel better and hope some will listen.
