These investigations should hopefully help put a dent in the issue though
Hopefully, but this is only individual hospitals. It's not made it to a national consciousness yet. It's made harder given the demographic. Women working with young mothers and babies. How could they ever be mean /s
Well spending time in hospitals you could see it wasnât good, the nurses get really bitchy with each other with head nurse usually being the worst
There seems to be a lot of corruption in caretaking in general, there's a lot of elder abuse in old folks' homes as well
Did I ever tell you about the time where the nurses gave me dirty looks when I cleaned my dads balls for him because no one was cleaning him... also bringing him clean undies every week gets expensive because no one would help him wipe his bum
No. That's fucked up
That's awful
I get that it's a stressful job, it probably has some negative mental impacts, but that's not okay
I'm in favor of caretakers and police getting regular mental evaluations
Well once when I wasnât there he tried to wipe himself and burst his stitches and got blood and lymph fluid all over the floor, was sitting the buzzing for the nurses for about 15 minutes because an angry nurse came in to yell at him for buzzing so much
Holy hell, I think I'd much rather die before I ever had to be put in one of those places
I am a full time caretaker now, itâs fun how little support I get
That's fucking disgusting. Surely that warrants being reported. Negligence leading to complications and harm. Not to mention psychological stress
My dad talked to the solicitor and they said they didnât want the case
There is a lot more shit that hospital did that they should be sued for, but itâs a bit complicated
Annoying but I understand.
Without money things are difficult to fix or hold people accountable
Also I think he is a bit done with courts on top of everything else xD
Fair.
Pretty difficult to fight a court case while also having to pay child support
For context, my mum has kicked me out of home, my dad was in hospital and couldnât pay it, so I payed for the child support that was meant to me for raising me... the child
System is fucked
That is disgusting, are there no allowances for being *literally physically unable to work*?
A genuinely Kafkaesque nightmare.
Pretty sure there are laws where being in a coma is no excuse for missing support payments
Well, shit. That might just be the best excuse I've ever seen to not get anyone pregnant
Reminds me of seeing this today
What would they even do to someone who's comatose and missing child support payments anyway? Cart his body off to court and then to prison? đŹ
Like I realize that's being facetious but how would they even enforce that
Just financially ruin him when he wakes up.
Well there was a guy who was captive in the Middle East, when he was finally released he was arrested as soon as he got home because of overdue child support
So you say you are being facetious but I honestly wouldnât put that past them xD
That is genuinely awful, imagine the kids being ecstatic just to have their father back from a life threatening situation, and then... boom, he's arrested
Also if you miss one payment ever, no matter the reason, you are actually âlegallyâ labeled as a deadbeat dad for the rest of your life
Which can be held against you in future
In court
Sorry, just curious, what country do you live in? I noticed "mum" so presumably not America
Australia
