Unsafe environmentRating: (votes: 0) Call both the BON and the BOH. Comment:
I'm glad to read that the training program found them a more suitable internship.Do a google search for your state for something like "assisted living complaints." You can also try looking up "ombudsman healthcare" for your state. Yes, I do believe this facility should be turned into the state esp. if residents are wearing multiple pain patches.

I believe you can report them to the state boards. I know you can report them, I am just not exactly sure where. State will come and check them out. However, sometimes they find out that State is coming and they do everything right for that one day. I wish the State people would go undercover. Of course they will act proper when the big people are around. I had a friend that worked for a horrible nursing home. She eventually left because she saw CNA's repeatedly beat dementia patients. She even recorded one with her phone (just sound, no video) State would come by and they would act all nice and proper. So frustrating.

Ok thanks, I will pass this info along. I know my one classmate really wants to report them, and wasn't sure how to do it. I don't think I should, because I wasn't there and didn't witness any of this.BON is Board of Nursing, right? And what is BOH? Board of Health? Sorry for my ignorance, but I haven't even taken my CNA class yet, and don't know any of this.

She may also want to contact the Department of Family Services in her area. These folks take care of both child abuse and elderly abuse. Good luck!
