When the NH calls, reinforce the fact that you absolutely can no longer care for her. Insist that caring for her is affecting your mental and physical health. Make sure they understand that because of her constant falling and sustaining serious injuries, your mother would be returning to an unsafe environment. If they insist on sending her back to your home, which they really can’t unless you capitulate, tell them you will seek the advice of an attorney regarding holding them responsible for an unsafe discharge if she becomes injured again.

Unless you live in your mother’s house, she cannot force her way back in unless, once again, you capitulate out of feelings of guilt or obligation and allow her back in. This is the time you must remain strong and determined, put yourselves first and send Mom to where she needs to be and YOU need her to be. If you allow her back in, then it is up to you to tolerate her until she passes.
