It turns out we can do plenty. To start with, we can file complaints with our state professional licensing boards, like nursing associations and the healing arts board. We can file complaints with the Joint Commission, and these organizations are all online. They are easy to find. But, before we do that, we need to ask ourselves what that will solve? Will it change the behavior of the provider or cause retaliation? Yes, folks, some professionals are actually spiteful. We nee

That is the absolute truth of the matter. Prime Equity is buying out Hospital groups, Family practices, Surgical practices, Dental groups, optometry groups, etc. Why does that matter? It matters because Prime Equity groups run on one mission and one mission only! What is that? " Profit Only Counts " in private equity. So cut the fat, slim down the lean, trim the excess, cheapen the ancillary benefits, and make that profit line a solid BLACK. Because then and only then "CAN T

I hear so many people complaining about not being able to find lawyers to file medical malpractice cases. They complain about hospitals; elders complain about the poor healthcare they are receiving. The problem is getting worse all the time, not better. So, do we have no choice except to keep quiet and continue paying ridiculous healthcare premiums while we get mediocre healthcare at its best? Today I want to address this problem, square on. Healthcare has changed indeed.

I have complained and pointed out all the negative factors of Healthcare I encountered in the last several years. I believe in being honest and fair. Evidently, someone is reading my blog and getting the messages out there. After all, that is the entire point of this blog. Let me explain what a result I encountered already. Earlier in the week, I had an annual check-up with my provider, and I am thrilled to say I noted positive changes. The Nurse took my B/p by the book. She

When a senior goes to the E.R of most hospitals, they may utilize the cashing in of automatic 72 hours for admission. Think about this. Think like an investigator. That gives them not just 3 days of hospital stays but 3 days to find several different diagnoses! Let's see. If we catheterize a senior, we can turn that into a new diagnosis because most catheters in ederly senior bladders can cause scarring, especially if they are dehydrated. Many are dehydrated with or without v

If you're healthy, don't worry, they will give you a diagnosis. I had an incident in 2024 and went to the hospital. They said it was a Lacunar stroke. The ER doctor Said It was a diabetic incident. She was closer than anyone. They also gave me the diagnoses of A-fib and CKD, of course. I was dehydrated from vomiting for 17 hours, and the Dr. gave me 50 mg of Benadryl with 50 mg of valium. They also catheterized me. Bingo! I am a candidate for CKD! Because dehydration, alo

The senior healthcare system is often seen as a safety net for our aging population, yet many seniors and their families face significant challenges when interacting with it. After decades working as a nurse and elder abuse investigator, I have witnessed firsthand the complexities and shortcomings of this system. Now, as a retiree navigating healthcare from the patient side, I see the stark contrast between investigating elder abuse and experiencing the system’s realities per

Let’s start with hospitals. As you all know, hospital staff in general could care less if you have complaints. They are busy, they are overstaffed, they are underpaid and just trying to do what they were supposedly trained for.They could care less if you have a lawyer because they know that is an empty threat.

We seemed to be in decent health in 2021, we were both active and no major problems were discovered. That is, until my husband went for new eyeglasses. His optometrist recommended cataract surgery. Since this was a V.A. optometrist, we thought it was an honest evaluation since they had nothing to gain by making a […]

At least from a senior citizen’s point of view.Let’s take a good look at hospitals ,Shall we? First of all, hospitals don’t care, why should they? what are you going to do? where are you going to find a lawyer to take the case? The Government has made it law that there is a cap […]

Looking at so many scenarios, I will focus on my own personal experiences.Let me start with pre-COVID. My husband had an ischemic stroke in 2018 and went to our local Catholic hospital, here in town. The Emergency Room was quite efficient and they were relatively quick to get him a C- scan to locate the […]

As we all know, in 2022, the year was still filled with the COVID-19 pandemic. We were overwhelmed with masks, gloves, sanitizing sprays, and six-foot distancing. It was a mess and good “ole sleepy Joe” told us to stay home and not send our children to school. The expert? Dr. Fauci, who had no clinical […]

Once I had rehabbed myself and conquered all the so-called diagnoses simply by losing weight and eating healthy while paying attention to the other points in the cycle of life, I made it back and now needed cataract surgery myself. I visited an eye surgeon and was scheduled for surgery at an eye surgical center […]

The psychological effects alone, from a Cancer Diagnosis, have to shatter a person. They are about to fight for their lives, and these Oncologists make it so much more debilitating! It is easy to see why, after all this nonsense, people give up.My husband finally calmed down, and on the sixteenth of August, he had […]

Next we tried a dedicated senior center, where you had physicians, a pharmacy, x-rays and tests along with an activity room and an Uber service to and from the center. All this and a vast array of unhealth snacks for free in the waiting room. Yes, cookies, soda, potato chips, candy bars, cheese doodles…. you […]
