Linda is now in a rehab/snf in Chico. It's less than a mile from home. That's the good news. There are an unbelievable number of totally inept and uncari9ng people there.I was so angry last night that it was making me feel sick to my stomach. Around 1 am we finally got a nurse in there who actually had a clue what she was doing. Today has been somewhat better but this place is so understaffed that everyone is running around completely frazzled. Yesterday one rn actually started crying in Linda's room. Unbelievable. At least Linda keeps improving, in spite of it all.
