Kept giving my diabetic uncle sugary foods, and giving his morning meds at night, I don't want to blame staff, but management. his blood pressure was through the roof, you can't be doing that. It's attempt of murder almost, I know old people go to nursing homes to finish off their life but assisting to kill them is wrong. Please do better for other residence lucky I don't come down there to do something about it. My friend is a CNA and they even said what y'all doing is bad
