My Comments on the 16X9 Presentation on Chemical Restraint

How can anyone try and justify this lawlessness...

This program lays out the deplorable conditions that plague long term care.  When you see the ignorant immoral staff of an upper class nursing home kill a poor defenceless care resident (Eldon Mooney) it has to make your blood boil!!  Then to lie about it as well is just the depths of debauchery!

This epidemic has been spreading rapidly unchecked for some time, both here and abroad, as is confirmed by the following story presented in the Alzheimer's Reading Room. Check out this link to the Overprescribed Use of Anti-psychotics in Nursing Homes for Dementia Patients, as per the report by Daniel R. Levinson, Inspector General Department of Health & Human Services, to United States Senate Special Committee on Aging.

College of Physicians and surgeons. Are Doctors Above the Law?

College of Physicians and Surgeons Do they have any relevance? Are Doctors Above the Law?
