[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They know what typically works for most and what helps the transition go more smoothly. They also know many will be unable to heed the advise, and make the transition much more difficult for all involved. [/quote] What they “know” is that witnesses are troublesome. Anybody who wants to control a helpless individual, young or old, by getting them out of the sight of family members, is acting for their own benefit, not the benefit of the helpless person. [/quote] Yep. No witnesses. Since most LTC facilities are owned by corporations, they care more about their bottom line than people. IMO, the reason they are asking for a week of non-visits is because the woman will undoubtedly be scared and act out. Once she does, they break out the drugs to keep her calm and zombie-like. And that's what she'll be like the rest of her life. [/quote] Obviously we disagree but that seems necessary and humane to me. [/quote]
