Glad to hear!
Thank You again.😁👍
Another sign of psychological abuse is the use of cell phones in the presence of the individual; because it shows that they don’t care about the residents but themselves. Also, another risk factor could be individuals that have personal health problems that cause them to act differently.
Gaslighting is a horrible thing for anyone to have experience but to do it to someone with dementia or alzheimer's is just despicable.
Neglect in residential care settings, are often because of overworked underpaid staff,with too limited time to care for the elderly. Who is really to blame here ( mostly)
The people that hires them
Greedy corporations who place profit over people?

What a shame
