This is a must-see for all nursing staff, far more revealing than the first program we produced on abuse. Hear residents discuss with great emotion long-term care experiences which they find abusive—a call bell ignored when someone needs help, a person left in pain, thirst or hunger ignored and staff attitudes which are negative and demeaning.
Topics: negative verbal interactions, adl neglect
Audience: students in health professional programs. Long-term care, assisted living, adult day care, and hospice staff.
