I want the doctor to stop Ativan, but he won't listen!.
I am not sure what do you mean by "mean fit". You indicate that it happens at night. Is it just that she is trying to get out of the bed? You need to get more information from the staff about her behavior. If it is just problem with sleep there are other medications that are better than "shot of Ativan". It also may help if she is occupied by meaningful activities for most of the day and is not napping too much. If she wishes to ambulate during the night the nursing home staff should be able to allow her to do that.
