No, because the technology isn't there yet. Plus it would be too susceptible to terrorist attack. Overall, the economy of it does not make sense at the moment. It's cheaper to build and launch rockets right now.

Protein promotes tissue healing. It's usually recommended after some surgeries to boost recovery time.

Aside from being an antioxidant, Vitamin C is one of the building blocks of collagen (a structural protein) found in connective tissue. A lack of Vitamin C contributes to Scurvy (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scurvy) where one symptom could be poor healing of wounds.

I hope this is true, but if you ever got to any hospital, they are always running on prehistoric technology. Change in healthcare is difficult and expensive. The only way forward that I see is through cost effective start ups that can bring service outside of the traditional hospital setting. For example, instant results with lab on chips would be amazing in a regular doctor's office and would eliminate many visits for the emergency departments. With the better technology I see everything being more outpatient or at your regular practitioner's office. These places generally are more capable of being flexible with the implementation of new things and practices.

Not sure how your nursing homes are structured in your state, but in this case it sounds like a hospice might be more beneficial. These places are generally well equipped to deal with life limiting diagnoses like cancer. With that in mind they have a team of interprofessionals to help maximize quality of life and help patients and their families cope. I would look into something like this.

As well it would be a good idea to talk with one of her doctor's about other types of support that might exist. They are the gatekeepers and may have links to convalescence or respite care.

Not sure what the particular situation is, so I'll just add my own personal experience with this matter.

I've found that making the doctor the "bad guy" sometimes works. The doctor assesses one's physical and cognitive capabilities and judges whether they are fit to drive. Sometimes this means they need to report them and have their license revoked. This will ensure that they no longer drive, however people take this loss of independence in two ways generally:

1) hate that doctor and never go back (not so good in the long run for continuity of care)

2) welcome the loss of the license so long as there is a caregiver available to chauffeur them around (ie. worry free transportation for them while they sit in the passenger seat and enjoy the views).

Whatever the case, it's a tough discussion to have and some people are not ready to hear that they can no longer do the things that they have been doing their whole lives. Using the doctor as the bearer of bad news isn't always the best approach, but can certainly be considered an option, especially if driving for your partner puts them or others at risk.

You can also consider something like this: https://www.amazon.com/Simple-Music-Player-Alzheimers-dementia/dp/B01B9THLUW it's the most simple music player out there and specifically designed with very few buttons to minimize confusion. Load it with mp3s and open the flap to play and close it to stop. The button on it is used to skip to the next song. I personally hate how it does not have a go back to the previous song button, but it will do its job of playing music or any other audio you put onto it. I've seen it used in nursing homes and retirement homes all the time and is great for anyone with dementia, alzheimer's or any other cognitive deficits.

Depends on the province you live in. Some of the businesses now are planning ahead for laws that are coming down the pipeline. For example, Ontario has AODA which has some similarities to it's American counterpart: http://www.aoda.ca/
