@Quoththeraven When I fell down a flight of stairs and had to go to one (because I was in a wheelchair and had no one at home to help me) I cried every day. I broke my ankle on both sides and they doctor said you could almost spin my foot around, he said I couldn't have broken it any worse! It was just before Christmas, so I was there for Christmas of 2016 and new years. My leg had to be constantly elevated, it was in a cast and my foot was the size of a beach ball.😭 It was WEIRD how the nursing home I was in let the people in therapy run the place?! Every morning they would get in my face to go to therapy...when I could hardly stand up?! I was told you didn't have to do it, but they damn near forced me! When I went to the doctors to have my foot unwrapped I was crying my eyes out and begging them to please help me! The doctor wrote a letter telling the therapist I wasn't ready for that yet! They only left me alone a few days and then right back in my room! They also had no call button in the bathroom. Being in a wheel chair I needed help...I would be sitting in there for over 30 minutes at a time, until I transfered myself out of the wheelchair. The nurse had a fit because she said I could fall. I told her there was no call bell...she didn't even know it?!😱 I was mistreated there, and had some of my clothes stolen on the way out. God help those in there that have NO ONE TO PROTECT THEM!

@Quoththeraven I'm LUCKY I had someone on the outside to come in there and help me!😟They make you wear a belt around your waist that they can grab in case you fall. When I wanted to go back to my room from therapy, the woman grabbed it and started yanking me all over the place!😳 It was a horrible experience that I will never forget. They should have been reported, but I didn't know how?! Yes, thank you...I made it out alive!!! God bless who ever you know there...keep an eye on them! 👁️
