Long term care super mobidly obese???
Just rec'd a call about a 650+ gentleman that has had a very difficult fall that included him being immobilized in the floor of his home for five hours, medical response cutting through the door, firemen with plywood, etc.... to get him out. He is currently hospitalized in Brunswick County here in NC. Everyone is looking for a long term care facility that works with the morbidly obese. Brrokhave in NY only allows NY state residents. Any insight of nursing homes or long term care facilities that could offer care for the gentleman? I was asked and didn't know but advised I would do a little research... Breaks my heart to know that there aren't any resources available for a man in such a desperate situation. :((
Thanks,
Candice
