Update.

She failed the swallow test. So a cadre of medical people are saying to put her into hospice. No feeding tubes (dementia patients often pull them out, which is bad). The hospice will work with her MC facility, and provide what she needs (wheelchair, bed alarm, etc). The diagnosis is stroke, so anything related to a stroke the MC staff calls the hospice. If it's unrelated, they can call 911.

It's nice she'll be able to go back to familiar surroundings. A hospice facility would just upset her more because she would not know it. She knows her room.
