Edited to respond: It’s not very reassuring that I’m seeing nearly identical responses across multiple reviews. I know corporate speak when I see it, and healthcare professionals should not incorporate this kind of language when their work is so important. Instead, answer this: why did my grandpa lay in bed unresponsive for over 48 hours before any imaging was done? Why did multiple nurses mention a DNR to me; did they realize he was there for a broken ankle, and that any sudden emergency SHOULD be treated? My mom and I were the first people that noticed his pupils weren’t responding to light. Why is that not part of the standard of care when a patient becomes unresponsive? I don’t even work in healthcare and I was able to notice at least two astounding points of failure.<br><br>My grandpa went to this nursing home with a broken ankle a month ago. He had moderate dementia, so we knew it was an uphill climb, but definitely a manageable condition. The nurses, aides and therapists were incredible and did what they could to help him.<br><br>The system itself? Horrible.<br><br>Everything moves so slow. Two weeks ago he started slowly drifting out of consciousness. Instead of immediately acting to find the problem, he had a different nurse every single night that had very little info from the previous shift. Each nurse was showing up like “wow, I haven’t seen him like this before.” They did what they could but the structure they were given is not conducive to taking care of patients.<br><br>He finally became unresponsive 3 days ago. Instead of sending him to the hospital to figure out what was going on, he just laid there and got worse. After two days, they finally found out he had pneumonia. It’s too late to help him now. He will be on his way to Hospice soon.<br><br>Thank you to the nurses and all of the staff that helped him. For-profit healthcare is evil. Get away from this place and go somewhere you can actually help people.
