By proceeding, I agree that I understand the following disclosures:
I. How We Work in Washington. Based on your preferences, we provide you with information about one or more of our contracted senior living providers ("Participating Communities") and provide your Senior Living Care Information to Participating Communities. The Participating Communities may contact you directly regarding their services. APFM does not endorse or recommend any provider. It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.
III. When We Tour. APFM tours certain Participating Communities in Washington (typically more in metropolitan areas than in rural areas.) During the 12 month period prior to December 31, 2017, we toured 86.2% of Participating Communities with capacity for 20 or more residents.
IV. No Obligation or Commitment. You have no obligation to use or to continue to use our services. Because you pay no fee to us, you will never need to ask for a refund.
V. Complaints. Please contact our Family Feedback Line at (866) 584-7340 or
[email protected] to report any complaint. Consumers have many avenues to address a dispute with any referral service company, including the right to file a complaint with the Attorney General's office at: Consumer Protection Division, 800 5th Avenue, Ste. 2000, Seattle, 98104 or 800-551-4636.

husband came home the day after I wrote my question and apparently has no problem tho he will not walk as much as i think he should. He says he feels ok.
It’s more than before tho.
i have a feeling that he could have stayed “forever” and id still be concerned for his safety.
anyway hes home and has seen a cardiologist, takes meds (he had a pulmonary embolism), had a blood test and chest xray and is set up for an echocardiogram and stress test.
so he’ll either be better … or worse.
i keep telling myself hes like everyone else since who knows whats wrong with anyone if we cant see it or if they feel ok till they dont.
for myself … i went to the er that same day as the note. I had covid too. Was given a script for paxlovid but the hospital pharmacy was closed and since i had a great parking space i decided to wait to fill it at another pharmacy.
The next day the hospital pharmacy had none and since most regular pharmacies were closed decided to forget it … i was past the time i needed to take it in anyway.
so we came home and life goes on.
thank you all again.
Do update us on how this is going for you and hubby, please.
You just need to be adamate that you can not care for him at home if he can't walk. Don't let them tell you you can get help. Once u walk him out that door, their responsibility to you is done. Your on ur own.
And that YOU are feeling unwell.
Betsy, I'm going to suggest that you get yourself to the ER and find out what's going on with YOU. Put a call into discharge planning and let them know that your husband is going to need to be able to care for himself if discharged, because you are currently in the hospital and unable to assist him in any way.
