Hubs is supposed to keep his phone on during the day. Had to talk to one of the nurses to tell him to turn his phone on. Said he couldn't eat his dinner because it was so salty. I will call Admissions again on Monday at the other facility to see if I can get him in there.
His 2nd cousin is making Easter dinner today and we will bring my husband a plate of food today.
Thank you for your continued positive vibes, prayers and support.

Odd that the food would be too salty. I would expect health care facilities would serve salt-less food.

I was thinking the same thing. Usually no salt at all!

@MarieCoyle Usually the meals are bland; but not at this place.

@LindaOHio It's very strange that they add too much salt, usually it's the opposite in care facilities.

I´m with you, Linda. In my country hospital food is so bad because they can´t use sugar or salt due to patients with special needs. I can´t imagine a medical facility that gives too salty food to patients I´m glad that he will get some good food for a change.

@LindaOHio I've had to do that for both of my parents. Things just get swept under the rug when transferred. Or orders are lost.

I know you all enjoyed your Easter lunch together. Hopefully your husband was able to enjoy it, also.

He had already eaten; so the meal came home with me. It was wonderful to get to see him.

Me too. I'm hoping he will be home in a couple of weeks; but that may be wishful thinking.

@LindaOHio I would expect low salt, not too salty.

It sounds like you're juggling a lot right now, from ensuring your husband's phone is on to navigating healthcare arrangements and family gatherings. I hope the Easter dinner brings some comfort to your husband, and please know that you have my thoughts and support during this challenging time. Sending continued positive vibes and prayers your way. Take care.

The food in those places is usually bland. Still trying to get a hold of Admissions.

@LindaOHio Right, that's what I would think. So that is strange...

I am sure your husband will be delighted to have the food you are bringing, I hope you can get him transferred, He needs to eat to get back his energy, I continue to keep him in my prayers. Many blessings to you both,

Sounds like a vey unusual facility. Salty food? Tasteless is normal, bland is not uncommon, but salty makes me wonder if they have a dietician on staff.
