"Victoria called and said that her mother was hospitalized. I am closing the request," the case management specialist of the Vera Foundation wrote in the report.
This summer, a woman who lived with her husband, child, and seriously ill mother contacted the foundation. The mother had been suffering from dementia for several years, had suffered several strokes, and during the last one, she broke her hip. Doctors came, prescribed medications, but the condition worsened, and the patient began to talk and scream at night. The daughter called in a difficult psychological state. She was afraid that they would be evicted from the rented apartment because the neighbors would complain. She was worried about the condition of the child, who was afraid of screaming, and she herself was very tired: no one in the family could sleep for a long time. The mother's condition worsened, hospitalization was required, which cannot be arranged without a decision of the medical commission. Our specialist explained to the relatives in detail, step by step, what to do. Supported them all the way, contacted the hospital management to arrange hospitalization in the palliative department. After ten days of working with the request, the mother was admitted to the hospital. Now the family has professional support, and will have the opportunity to catch their breath. This is the story of one family, and in 3 months, the service employees helped 148 families from 27 regions of Russia. Their work is possible thanks to your support. Thank you!
