Hi Don-- sorry to hear about your friend. As for how to make the hospital listen about meds, the best thing we have found is to have the neuro or other doctor WRITE IN YOUR CHART THAT VIVIAN CAN GIVE YOU MEDS--EVEN YOUR OWN SUPPLY FROM HOME. If the instruction is written in the chart, the nurses should honor it--watch to make sure until they get used to it. The hospital would want to have meds in your ORIGINALbottles that have the name.dose,and other instructions on the labels---also a written list of what you take when. That should work. We have had no problem with this way of handling it in our local hospital when Peter has been an inpatient. If they ever catch up with you again, give that a try! > > JUST 0000000 > TO 0/ 0 000 > SAY HI! 0| o o |0 CAMILLA > 0| ^ |0 >. ......... ...o00o..........\.. *.. ./.......o00o........... >| | | | | | | | | >| | | | | | | | | > ><[log in to unmask]> > > http://www.newcountry.nu/pd/members/camilla/one.htm >
