Mostly Independent
Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
As a nephew (your mom's grandson, right?) he really has zero voice in mom's care. But then, we've heard weirder things on this site.
I'd first approach him and give him a chance to explain (short!!) and get the phone back. Curious as to why he felt the need to take it from mom.
While this may or may not be 'legal' it's bordering on being abusive.
My YB took my mom's landline away and got her a cell phone. She was never able to really use it properly. She begged to have her landline re-connected and he wouldn't allow it. To this day, IDK why.
I think it was simply another 'control' he wanted to have over her.
Maybe he did not understand and accept that it was too hard for her. Arrogance I guess. Most of us are doing it the other way - taking away the cell phone that's become too difficult and replacing it with a good old land line.
It almost sounds like a really sick joke. Your sibling’s son… your mom’s grandson took the phone… how old is he? well, cancel that phone, tell phone company it was lost and/danaged, yiu need a new one
I agree with others who posted that you need to speak with your nephew to find out why he took the phone away. Do you know the reason why he would do this?
Is she in an AL or living independently? Is he her POA.
A while back it was suggested to an OP take the phone away from her LO to keep them from making inappropriate calls. The OP came back and said that in her state it was illegal to leave someone without a phone. You may want to check if there is such a law in ur State.
I have the Telecalm service on my mom's phone. You can restrict the incoming/outgoing calls and how many times they can call the same number within a certain time period, etc.
OP - how do you know nephew took her phone? Have you talked to him? Did he steal it or remove due to her being unable to use it or was she misusing it or is he just a jerk??
Did you speak with Nephew about this? What did he say? Does Mom have dementia? Was Mom using the phone inappropriately that you know of? Does Mom live with nephew? We need a bit more information and explanation.
You can report it to nobody. Confront your nephew who doesn't have the right to do such a thing. Find out his reasoning behind removing her phone as well. Was she calling 911? Is dementia involved? Did he just do this to be mean?
