Sexual attacks? How terrible! And this moron said it was because of her daughters? Take her out back and shoot her. I'm not worried about ObamaCare, I NEVER put an elderly, or sick family member in one of these places, and I never will. This is horrific...But I'm sure it happens all over the world, we just don't read about it.

This is a very personal story for me. My Mother was in care in Ontario, Canada and during her stay she suffered 3 falls each one more serious than the other and the 3rd putting her in hospital.. when she died in care, she had a large bed sore on her back, was being treated for infection and was on insulin as her blood sugar was spiking. With these facts, my head tell me she suffered at the hands of those trusted and paid to care for her. My 3 sisters also are to blame for her suffering the last decade of her life. My heart is broken...

and this is exactly what is coming to the USA under Obabacare and his board of appointed Communists whose intent is limiting healthcare and I quote the big O himself 'based on age and cost'. Don't you know, Ireland, euthanasia is the key. I mean stupid voters here in America what the heck do you think 'based on age and cost' means?

This is totally unacceptable behavior by all. I don't care whos daughter looks lovely or star quality, it doe not matter. When it comes to older people I am their champion. They are timid, afraid to make waves in any way and so become victims of abuse by heatless "helping hands". The Irish Gov. seems to have very few officers in their welfare system who can cover all the atrocities that are happening. There is a place that could give employment to some people with spirit and loving hearts. Health care workers wake up and H E L P !
