[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 358975, member: 1233"] Very good points, Lisa. I don't have as much familiarity with nursing homes and remember eons ago when I was in high school being told by a nurse at one that if the doctor didn't order it they couldn't do ANYTHING that could be construed at medical treatment, even giving ice. I was a volunteer and one patient had a swollen knee. Chances are high I was getting the run-around, but I was about 13 at the time. The hissy fit followed by formal complaints sound like good ideas. The comment about the expensive underwear that P gave to a nurse was because she may have thought that it would help get them to treat her better, because another patient told her it would help, or even because a staff member made a comment. Either way, if gifts are still happening you need to ask about their policies. I hope that these things help. [/QUOTE]
