Morning everyone,
Terriers are soo cute lol... Hearts of a lion in a tiny body lol..
Sunny here too and a tad chilly...
Housework for me too. Well clothes to put away, dishwasher to fill and the recycles to get out.. Have had pain meds, so thats possibly as much as I will get done. But Ill be pleased to have that sorted.
I spoilt myself yesterday. After putting gas in the car and doing my bloods I still had 45 minutes to kill before seeing MrP. So I went to the oppy as they had a half price sale.
Came home with 5 matching, like new cushions in red with white and grey stripes. Perfect for my bedroom as red and white is my colour theme and the carpet is grey. So Ill have to decide if I want to fluff around moving cushions night and morning or if Ill put them on the red couch in there... I suspect the couch will win cos I can see them there in my mind. Got them half price even tho the furniture department wasn't in the sale. So the grand sum of $10 for 5 cushions.
I got told off for talking to a lady who had called out hello to me yesterday.... yeah petty but It would have been cos she was one of the ladies who complained.. Then while there a lady fell in the dining room.. I looked out of MrPs room to see her laying on the floor trying to hold her head up while 2 carers were standing there doing Nothing... I went into the linen cupboard across from MrPs room and grabbed a blanket. I rolled it as I walked up to the lady. And there not much further than 2 meters away from her was a pillow on a chair. And the two carers stood there doing nothing. I said get that pillow and get it under her head now... !!!!.
Other staff arrived and what they did next appalled me... they didn't check her over or anything, just grabbed her and rolled her onto her back. Her cry was horrendous. I had to leave. But when I got home I rang the Ministry or health and told them what they had done.
Older people have brittle bones, she could have broken her hip or shoulder or anything.. Did they get the ambulance... MrP dosent think so.
I also heard back from our local MP.. useless. He spoke to the rest home, they told him they would improve things and he was done with it.
So Over the weekend I will do a very long email and send it to the Minister for elder people and see if I can get help there.
As much as I know I couldn't look after MrP or Bobbie cos I couldn't leave her there. I Sooo want to get them out of there.
Im worried someone will die from mistreatment before anything can happen. The MOH did tell me along with their 3 yearly Audit they do do an unannounced inspection so I can live in hope.
I never saw the manager at all. She gets others to do her dirty work.
Ive asked MrP to get Bobbie to introduce him to Colleen who is the one that has been complaining for 4 years, so that we can pass notes... Its going to be the only way to not get caught. And they cant stop me from saying hello to the ladies that gather in the dining room at least.
Sorry for the rant, its just soo bloody shocking...
Have a fab day everyone and please be careful on the roads.
