Brenda, it is sad and I wonder if it actually is best
practice to intercede in these relationships. The first
question I would ask is: Is there any harm to any of the
residents involved?
I know families (and sometimes our own staff) may find
these situations uncomfortable, but it is the resident we
need to focus on and never give up on trying to help
families understand the limits of our power to control the
actions of the residents.
