Great Article from S.C. about a woman who visited a relative and was angered by what she found to be nursing home neglect.
"Elderly
abuse ranges from physical, financial, emotional, sexual and anything
in between including bedsores, infections, unsanitary environment,
neglect and broken bones.
How do you prevent elderly abuse at nursing homes? You do something
about it! Like the great Orator Frederick Douglas said, “you agitate”.
Do whatever you have to protect your love one and to ensure that the abuse does not continue."
