Consumer groups are making a last ditch effort to stop the Trump administration from stripping nursing home residents and their families of the right to take facilities to court over alleged abuse, neglect or sexual assault. --- kin to all that throbs ... Copied to Clipboard!

I would think having courts settle disputes would be better than an arbitrator but than I realized that the American court system is a joke

language in their resident contracts requiring that disputes be settled by a third party rather than a court. So fair, next. If they don't like it don't sign the contract. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Gojak_v3 posted... Nope no problem with it since: Antifar posted... Under its proposed revisions, CMS said nursing homes would be required to write the arbitration agreements in plain language and explain the agreement to the prospective resident or his or her representative. I wonder how many of you guys actually read what was posted and aren't just knee jerking. Not to mention there would be third party arbitration. --- ... Copied to Clipboard!

Yeah people don't want they want to go to court. Next you know good and fucking damn well that places that have the most issues would be the ones the write in the contract people can not sue. And you know what for most people it is hard to find a place that they can afford. So this making even harder on them. --- Bender: Well, everybody, I just saved a turtle.

How are nursing homes currently being held accountable? Can they get their shit kicked in by law enforcement and/or taken down for breaking laws, or do they cover their asses so well via legalese and fineprint that negligence and criminal activities can't be reported to significant effect to a higher legal power?
Because if you can't get a nursing home's shit wrecked for forgetting to feed Grandma for days at a time or stealing her jewellery without dragging them to court, then there's something absolutely fucking disgusting about the system and the end to this rule is absolutely fucking disgusting. At face value, it looks like it fucks over the vulnerable party and provides an additional layer of protection to those who stand to benefit from their mistreatment, and the only reason I can see for this policy to be removed is because it came from Obama's government. This policy covers sexual misconduct as well. If there's an orderly who's sick enough to rape a resident of the nursing home they work at, that fucker deserves to be bled dry by any means necessary. If this policy goes away, then what measure is left to punish molesters and abusers for preying on the weak? That's a genuine question - how good are the protections for nursing home residents aside from this law, how else can you punish misconduct and challenge abuse? Because without an easy way to combat that fuckery, then the repeal of this policy is an absolute fucking disgrace and the fuckers who pass the repeal should eat concrete. --- And outside it's ninety-two degrees, and KROQ is playing Siouxsie and the Banshees.

My mother has a PHD in Elder Care, she's gotta be pissed. Why? This is definitely beneficial for most people, and it reduces some of the burden placed on these facilities. Seems like a win for everyone involved. --- CE's source of sage-ly advice #BLM ... Copied to Clipboard!
