I am interested in receiving the written report you indicated you would be sending me with your impressions from your visit to Anna's last week and an update on your progress in replacing Doris. Please send me times next week for you and I to speak to clarify roles as there seems to be some confusion so clarification is needed. If you are considering purchasing or loaning anything related to Anna's care please email, phone or text me to discuss it. Monitors do remain in NS in heated storage and since all staff use them NND would have ordered a replacement or arranged for someone to purchase one which would have been the best and quickest way for a replacement to be in place. Or perhaps one of your staff could have done so. I am well aware a monitor is a key part of meeting Anna's care needs. In addition the shipping address for Anna is Bruce MacDonald's office which I have sent to Sydney. Since this HCA Canada's first time working with Anna there is a learning curve with many moving parts which we need to work to lessen. You have stated what is possible from your standpoint and I would like to discuss it with you further so Anna's needs, those of the staff taking care of her are met and those responsible for supervising her care are met. Looking forward to a call to do so. Best, Mary Lou Mary Lou Masterpole ACSW, LICSW, C-ASWCM AZA Care Management 60 Birmingham Parkway, Suite 28 Boston, MA 02135 617-448-0664 (c) 617-254-9800 (o) mmasterpole@homecareassistance.com On Thu, Aug 25, 2022 at 12:38 PM Cheryl Cartwright wrote: > Good Afternoon Mary Lou, > > I hope you are well and having a good week.
