Frankly, what was done indicates the importance of bringing justice to the disgusting lazy ugly people who think they are going to go on deliberately hurting others without consequences. Firing them is not enough. Making them pay compensation for years and years is not enough. Forcibly pushing Haldol into them every week for a year might begin to function as justice. Might.

It's essential that a vulnerable person in hospital or care home has someone strong on the outside, family or friend, fighting their corner.

Sure, if someone had done their job, this could have been avoided.

But aren't you being unreasonable? For best results, the staff need to keep doing their job! How likely is this?

Nightmare. I worked in the OR for 35 years and fortunately nurses have a say of things in the OR. We have relationships with the surgeons. They actually count on us to be there. I couldn’t work in the floors bc of things like this. Thank God the man was ok. 🙏🏻🇺🇸

Terribly sad. People need to make sure their loved ones are protected from abuse by regular visits and apprised of medical history.

But it is ridiculous that you need protection from nurses, if you don't like to be a nurse find something else to do. May be sweeping the streets.

Dee Dee please have a conversation with our Article III Amendment VII Civilian Court of record on Skype in the very near future We have had a legitimate Grand Jury. I think #5 on the Health Administration on Oregon an Industry aka OHA. Our Grand Jury have sent Presentments and True bills to the de facto governance State of Oregon and the provisional government on Oregon. We have had a trial with verdicts that have no appeal in fact. The de facto has done Jack-Shit. www.orsja.org we have had over 450 shows on Portland Cable TV. We publish on youtube and Brighteon. One removal from youtube. We corrected the word and republished. www.orsja.org, ronvrooman38@proton.me

30y years in long term care and I can tell you that some people just should not be trusted in the role of a caregiver. And some people should not be trusted to supervise those people who should not be caregivers. Only a small percentage of the staff are malevolent, but they bully other staff members many of whom are followers. Then there are a small percentage of good people but they burn out fast. Family involvement is crucial but if the people at the top don't care about the human beings they are ultimately in charge of, and sadly a lot of them don't, the only option is to get your loved one out of there. Before retiring the last administrator I worked for never stepped foot on the actual nursing care units. She was only concerned with the almighty dollar. She focused a lot of her energy on pushing out those of us with 10 or more years of supervisory experience as we were close to top end of the pay scale and replacing us with entry level nurses thereby showing a big cut in labor cost. After 10 years on the unit and 10 years as a supervisor you learn all the tricks, and you can spot those people who shouldn't be caregivers from a mile away, but if those In charge don't have your back you cant do much. They overturn the discipline, I'd even had people moved away from my supervision rather than terminating them. People they did allow me to terminate were often brought back and given jobs in other departments. So 30 years was enough for me. Oftentimes it's not possible to take your loved one home or find other placement and in those cases don't hesitate to contact your state board of health or long term care ombudsman. Also call into administration often. If you become an annoyance to them they might fix the problem. The people I cared for all had a story to tell and all deserved to be treated with non judgmental dignity and respect. Sadly I think the covid scam ruined caregiving. I let my license lapse, I won't be going back.

TX story:

Picked 3 possibles (read Medicare rating, checked state complaints and read reviews in tons of service & employment sites) for my Aunt, her son chose NH based on location. During 2 months of attempting to coordinate w/med staff what my Aunt's med routine would be, was able view orders on charge nurse's computer. Crazy protocol mixed alz meds, serious anti-deps (specifically contraindicated!!) and pain meds to sedate her into veggiepatientology.

My cousin couldn't challenge bcuz they couldn't schedule consult, & NH director had no specifics in Aunt's chart. Doctors are independent contractors with clients housed in dozens of NHs. Numbers racket, conveyor care, Pharma whores and insurance riggers all.

Out of 20 staff in the website 'about' section only 4 were still employed by month 3, including exit of the VP of patient care and NH medical director.

It would've been her wish to have stayed home longer but the NGOs and TX gov help agencies were completely overrun by illegals needing services. No meals-on-wheels, no medicaid companion service, no rides to doctors, no help for her, no 'navigating system' help for family.

Wuflu put us in another hell circle. Burn, burn... the ring of fire.

THIS crap MUST NEVER HAPPEN AGAIN...

even to my worst enemies.

It is gut wrenching the way they abuse the elderly in so called care homes.

Even before care home when you get to a certain age doctors push statins!? Must be a bit of money in it the way they push them. What harm do those poison pills do?

I have just written to UK GOV office that records numbers of deaths in the country. Have asked for last 8 years and to be put in yearly figures!? Would be good if people from other countries could gather this information!?

Thank you for telling us this. The nursing home staff must be evil. Haldol is particularly nasty with chlorine and fluorine in it.

The more I think about this, it wasn't a "mishap". Depriving a vulnerable guy of a dignified way to pee was downright abuse, and drugging him afterwards for no good clinical reason should be charged as an assault.

Knock on wood, I am never going to be admitted to one of these facilities. I happen to be in a number of them throughout the week. There are nice ones,

There are horror show ones.

For a short stay hip replacement you would think the hotel hospital that they might have better options and not throw a healthy man into a nursing home. The nice ones are like Hotels. The others are

Extremely creepy, spine chilling actually. I walk through the valley of Death, swift my feet saying promising to myself I will never end up here.

So back again WE Need a strong advocate.

Covid death manufacturing Kill 2 birds with one stone: kill useless eaters in care facilities 1.2. Inflate kill Cv 19 numbers scare public. Demonic Actuarial dream.

I suspect low intelligence workers, lazy, system is sedation TV on stay in room be compliant, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest with a broken hip

Rehab left to slump in a chair and not one staff member there could get off their ass and help.

Now the invasion of “refugees” planned chaos

Overrun the safety nets ….

Like any industry there are good facilities good people some of these care homes are nightmares

Anyone who walks the corridors and peeks in

Will see.

Back to pray your never there! IF you are have a strong person for your advocacy.

For all the money in medicine this seems to be

The poverty zone ghetto… warehouse the people

Sedation and grind them into drooling long lost looks in the eyes. I walk swiftly try not to look,

Still do… try not to think …. Nor care … just get me the F out of there.

One of our societies greatest failures.
