I'm sorry this post won't be more informative. I didn't go up to the hospital today although I know my sister in law did, so I will ask her or my brother to post as they will have more information then I do.
I know during a time like this we continue to need prayers, although I feel that we REALLY need them now. Dad is not being treated well at all. It can literally be an hour or two before a nurse even comes into dad's room after he hits the nurse button. This is unacceptable to us. What if something serious was going on and he really needed help...2 hours later the nurse finally comes? I don't think so! Tonight it took mom calling the supervisor twice before dad could get any pain medicine, and that was an hour and a half after he initally hit the button that anyone came....and I am assuming he actually has gotten it, maybe he still hasn't. Mom is calling the supervisor every 15 minutes from home until he actually gets it and then will varify with dad that he has actually gotten it. We know that nurses have a lot to do and that it takes time, but to not even come in and see what the patient needs, is rediculous.
Mom and I are going tomorrow to look at another facility and we feel in our guts and hearts that dad is not safe anymore. Well let me rephrase that, she is going to call in the morning and try to get an apointment with someone to see the facilities. So we are praying that there will be someone there to have a meeting with. We know two people who are either right now staying in the facility or just got out a few days ago to go home, so we are going to call them also. Please pray that we will be able to talk to someone, that we will know God's direction, and be able to get this situated soon.
I don't know much about dad today accept that tonight he was needing pain medicine and that it had gotten so bad now that he has a massive headache and it hurts so much he feels drugged.
Please pray that things will get better and of course for dad's safety through all this. I am very scarred for him right now when no one is able to be up there with him at night and for his well being. Thank You!!!
