I didn't know you are a hospice chaplain. I will email you if I need support and have a few moments to focus on getting it. <BR/>Actually, the owner of Roze Room Hospice called me because it is so unusual for anyone to leave and ask for a different hospice. She wanted to hear the details and promised to correct things. That was encouraging, but I still needed to leave this particular hospice service.<BR/>--Anne E.A Linstatterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08548864308299827710noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-16654596.post-51710720096310509892008-03-26T11:42:00.000-07:002008-03-26T11:42:00.000-07:00Oh, Anne.

What you are asking is not unreasonable--especially after being burned. I am a hospice chaplain and I can't imagine why they issued a "stop milk" order, that is just dumb. Where I work I would expect her to be offered what she likes, as much and as often. She, not some person at the end of a phone line, should decide for as long as she can about eating. I am just so sorry you are having such difficulty; going to hospice in itself is not a milestone anyone is thrilled to reach to put it mildly. There is a lot you can't control, but you should expect competence. Please don't hesitate to contact me if I can be of any support.terri chttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09398808840234914275noreply@blogger.com
