I talked to the Administrator at Judes Nursing Home, Heartland Healthcare Center, a Ms. Kimberley Lemaster. She stated to me that Jude is encouraged to try and turn herslf, which I agree with being in a Nursing Home myself at onset, but that wasn't the issue. The issue I brought up was, the night attendant being disrespectful and negligent via the Patients Bill of Rights. Ms. Lemaster suggested to me that she will place a tablet in Jude's room, and it will be signed by any attendant who is assigned to Jude, dates and times of attentive care. Ms. Lemaster also stated she will make a surprise visit on Sunday to check the status of same. Then she will call to keep me apprised of what is happening. I in turn will let all interested parties know that status of our conversation. Till then remeMber, your power lies in your refusal to be powerless. GUNNY
