Katyj, my Mum is in hospital because of a UTI with falls and it is such a difficult thing to know what to do. We did the same as you last time because her partner cannot cope and my mother refuses to have anybody coming into the house. Her partner is nearly on his knees with as poor a memory as her so I can't help thinking wondering how they are going to manage going forward. The hospital could set up things if we lived in the same county but we are just over the border so nothing melds. Last time Mum was in hospital 3 weeks before they sent her home in an ambulance because we refused to take her. We've limped on for 12 months but the stress of it is just dreadful.
Her UTI has not responded to 2 lots of broad spectrum antibiotics but there has been no testing because of Covid. I kept warning the GP that she would end up in hospital but nobody would listen. It is quite tragic really because now I am worried she will get Covid.
I hope you have better luck with your Mum.
