the site nurse stopped in to do my annual visit before my appointment today. i don't even know the point of the visit, she didn't talk to my home health aid about me or my cares. they spoke about a different client who lives in the same assisted living program as i do. they spoke about how she didn't feel safe with just one aid transferring her and how they didn't think it was safe either. the nurse said, "well, then, you know what? she really shouldn't be living on her own in this assisted living program if she feels she needs more help." it's kinda ridiculous because the assisted living program (that i live in) has 3 clients, which includes me, that they take care of- so there are two other women and the program is already talking about cutting back hours. one older woman who always pulls her string for help and another client who is a year younger than me, which is the client who said that she wanted two aids to transfer her (one of the aids hurt their back when one was trying to tranfer her last week). the only thing that the nurse asked me was when i'm going to be starting school again and i told her next month. after that, she just said, "well, if you don't have any concerns.. everything looks good."
i spoke to the advisor person (i forget her title right now) and she said that i'd graduate in may of 2014 if i start classes next month, which i intend on doing.
