Socially conservative caregivers
Hi all! I usually post of the spouse board, because my spouse has Alzheimer's. Now my father is also showing signs and I'm thinking forward to placement.
The place I have my dh is wonderful, but religiously run, and caregivers throughout my community tend to be socially conservative. I have kept from bringing some of my dh's possessions that are less stereotypically masculine, and it hasn't been a big deal.
But my father is pretty openly gay (came out after Mom died after 63 years of marriage) and I'm concerned that if I have to place him he will experience bias in the care situation. Has anyone had experience placing queer family members or friends?
