Horror Care: How Private Health Care is Shortening Our Lives

[Sunlei]

6. my heart goes out to those who don't even have family to check on them daily.

There were many times the private contracted company who were trusted to send out a health aid,
didn't show up,
skipped feeding meals,
stole items,
gave no liquids,
used the phone the entire time they were supposed to be caring for an invalid,
gave the phone number to some prison to charge back calls on,
brought deadbeat friends along with them,
trash canned medications,
didn't even touch or move the invalid,
bruised the person on face, legs, arms, feet who was as helpless as an infant.

If not for our entire family helping with the care and the oversight of a very good Doctor, Dr. Mocowitz of Houston, Tx....that private contractor with their crappy 'health care' providers would have killed, neglected to death our Grandmother/Mom.

Americas private system just sucks. There is no oversight, there aren't even any checks by real medical autopsy when a person dies. They sign off as natural causes and the person who signs isn't even a Doctor.

My heart goes out to all the Americans who have to depend on 'for profit caregivers' who would rather see them dead if they aren't shut up/take the abuse and profitable.
