@MpowerdAPE Oh dear that's aweful! I actually didn't know how bad it was in care homes (as I only really worked in 1... and that was bad enough) and yes.. shame to see how we treat our older generation..

[MpowerdAPE]

@KassCraven Haha, "MRSA" , i have NEVER transported a patient from the "medicare floor" of any nursing home that didnt have "MRSA" on his or her chart. and most of the rest did as well. if people knew how it "really" was for the elderly in this country... there would be NO MORE money for the "defense budget".

our "greatest generation" is not being treated as such.

@KassCraven Well by the comment it appeared to me you were. Thats very nice of you and excuse me if I said anything that offened you.

@sweetheart15501 1stly , being refereed to as an idiot when you do not know me is rather juvenile, and secondly, I did fight the case, I cared for all the residents as best I could, and even reported them to the health department, being as it was a private care home they were untouchable, I ensured people got fed, they were clean, I even fed a 3 stone resident 3 bowls of pudding as she was 'starving' I got a disciplinary warning for spending 40 mins with her to ensure she had some nutrients.

@MpowerdAPE it's shocking, I did challenge the place I worked at once, when they used the same bath water for another resident, and I also threatened I was bringing in my camera to take photos of all the rooms as they had no soap for 1 week so we couldn't wash our hands after each person (1 resident had MRSA at the end of the 2nd week 5 had MRSA) I walked out and reported them but as it was a private care home authorities couldn't touch them.

@KassCraven we've walked in the same circles. horror stories are a dime a dozen. we've witnessed the unreported horror. i fear it will only get worse.

@KassCraven why didnt u do anything idiot

[KassCraven]

@MpowerdAPE I worked in a care home where i witnessed people being thrown off their beds and leaving them in their own excrement for 12+ hours. Most of the care workers who worked there just walked in and got the job without prior experience :(

people that abuse the elderly are sick. it makes me so angry that we allow this to happen. it has to be stopped and should be stopped right now.

i dont know how the people that abuse can sleep at night.

and why is 'EnjoyElderAbuse' making this into a joke? this is such a serious problem and is not a laughing matter.
