From my experience, those APS visits and investigations are triggered when you change nursing agencies, or you fire or stop using a private duty aide. If they seem intrusive you can call the case workers's supervisor and complain, and that may help. APS here in Virginia Beach has the philosophy that every elderly person with dementia needs to be in a nursing home. They have been after me for years to put my mom in a home, but I have 4 excellent caregivers who take care of her 24/7, and love her and she's happy, well fed, laughs a lot, and the live in aide has 2 dogs and a cat, which is great for my mom. If my mom was in a home, I would still need to pay people to be with her during the waking hours to give her the love and attention she deserves. Don't let APS get you down. Enjoy the time you have left with your dear mom, and say everything you want to say to her, and love on her every chance you get!
