[quote=Anonymous]I agree, OP. We did all we could for my now-dead parent. He did not want to die and was not ready to go. He was not eating and the only way to stay in memory care if you are not eating is to be labeled "hospice." Once he was labeled as hospice--but still in his wheelchair and not actively dying--a nurse gave him a lethal dose of morphine before leaving him in a living room at memory care to die. A family member found out and called the ambulance. He was treated with narcan. So be aware there are nurses out there who do choose to off people. There was a book written about (and a movie made) about one. The nurse who killed my dad is still out there somewhere. The author of the book is someone I met. He told me that he left a copy of his book (about the murderer nurse) on his mother's nightstand in the hospital. He wanted them to know he knew. [/quote]
