Headline: "US army veteran, 84, dies after staff at a nursing home failed to properly bathe him and his ######## rotted off" (####### = jen-ah-tals)

They tried to blame it on the patient refusing showers...

Which is such bull crap. Disoriented and confused patients often refuse treatment. Staff members know to politely acknowledge their refusal and work around it. I know medical staff don’t have an easy job to do. But letting an elderly patient die from gangrene is inexcusable. If they felt their hands were tied they should have pushed for a doctors recommendation for court commitment to a mental health facility. More than likely that facility collects a check and keeps old people alive and hopes there isn’t a big story to come out like this one and nothing else.

No one should have to rot to death!!!

(Of course, I know articles are often sensational just to elicit emotion like I’ve shown today.)
