Kristy, welcome to Lewyville

How close do you live to your dad?

Give us some background on caregiving avaiable.

Tell us what he can't do, and we will get a rough idea of the best

suggestions.

There are 3 very bad meds that you should remember right from the

start: Morphine, Ativan, and Haldol. H-A-M for short. You'll learn

why as we go, but memorize these for now.

Medical power of atty?

Current meds.

Is he driving?

i know it seems like we are all up in your business, but you'll

appreciate it as time goes on.

Enough for now,

Carol
