Vets Home on man hunt for Blog Authors, even when they should already know who they are.

Oh My God. This really takes the cake. I mean how incompetent can these administrators be?

4 years on this blog and they still don't know who the 2 authors are? I have personally claimed credit for it over 40 times in the last year, while visiting people at the home, both Veterans and Staff!


I stopped in Friday after going to the clinic for an ultrasound and visited with a few guys. And now I am being told by several residents there, that the home is on a man hunt to find out who Joe and I are, believing we are either one of the residents, or volunteers.

Again, for the record, Joe and I are FORMER members of the DOM unit. Joe and I left of our own free will, unlike many who were just kicked out to the street. We do not reveal our true ID's because if we did, our friends at the home would pay the price.  That is how this administration works.

And I wonder, what are they going to do when they do find out who we are? Are they going to try to ban us from the property as they have so many people?  <snicker>  Because that is about the only thing they will be able to do.

This all points out to the fact that the home is being run by a group of  egotistical maniacs who expect people to kiss their ass if they want to be able to participate at the home (if they are outsiders), or if they want to continue living at the home if they are residents.

Apparently the administration is very very upset about the fact that at least 2 people are exercising their right of free speech, (Joe and I), exposing the corruption, wrong doings, and shear incompetence of the administration while at the same time exposing the abuse of the veterans by the administration or its policies.

To this I have to say: TOO Damn BAD!  Get over it. This is America and we have FREE SPEECH here.

If you don't like it, Leave a comment that does not attack the blog authors, and that adds some real information to the subject at hand.  Or better yet, Start your own Blog.

But wait!

GRH4V can't do that because their main activities person can't even boot up a computer, let a lone figure out how to use one; isn't that right Tiffany?

Also, we show support for the Administration when it does something right as we did during the past Christmas fiasco, that was done by a family member of one of the residents.

Vets home is still over drugging veterans without proper medical or legal oversight.

From the office of the Michigan department of of the Auditor General Report April 2013.
Page 15. The Home has been found guilty of not providing proper mental health supervision as required by federal law since the home takes federal money to pay for the care of the veterans.

Nor has the home had an on staff psychiatrist since August 2011. Yet the home continues to administer drugs (medications) that require a licensed Psychiatrist. In fact, according to this audit, the home on average has been giving these drugs to 81 percent of its 509 veterans.

And that the home administered anti psychotic drugs to 41 percent of its 509 members, verses 18 percent in other nursing homes in Michigan. And they did this without proper medical attention.

In short, they are over drugging the veterans. And this we already knew. But it still goes on.

According to this report, the home was supposed to reduce the amount of medication over time, due to lack of properly trained and certified medical personnel, but the home did not. 

The home is STILL over drugging its veterans. THIS MUST STOP. It is KILLING veterans.

One veteran stopped taking the drug Depakote. This was unbeknown to the staff. Instead of swallowing it, he spit it out in his bathroom. At his Care Conference in March, all those in attendance commended him on how well behaved he had been, referring to the drug and how good it was working. He recently was hospitalized because of other issues and it became known that this drug wasn't in his system! In other words, his improved behavior was because he was not taking the drug. And because he was not taking it, they are now punishing him, by forcing him to take a drug he does not need.  NOW, they are forcing him to take the drug, mixing it with applesauce. He has NO CHOICE now. To further punish him, they stopped giving him the drug Baclofen. Without this drug, this veteran has to deal with spasticity and the inability to move his legs. He needs help getting out of bed. He needs help getting to his chair. Every move he makes is very painful. I did some research on this drug Depakote. I am including it here for your reference.

http://www.drugs.com/sfx/depakote-side-effects.html. This veteran is suffering from many of the side effects. The big one is dementia. This veteran suffers from EVERYONE of the common side effects in one form or another. He has been diagnosed with COPD. Why give him a drug that causes difficult or labored breathing? We can all understand why they want the veteran to take a drug that causes depersonalization. This kind of "Care" is a criminal act and should be investigated and prosecuted.

Another man is fighting the administration who is trying to force a guardian upon him, because he will not take drugs for something that runs in his family, which he is not showing any signs of having. The drug makes him disorientated and since is not showing signs of the illness, he figures he should not have to take the drug.  The home disagrees, and is trying get the state government to impose a guardian upon the man, (making him a slave and taking away his freedom), so that the guardian can force him to take the drugs. This just isn't right.  The guy found out the home had been secretly talking to his wife about getting a guardian for 6 months.. He is extremely upset about this, as he should be.

This is the "quality" care Deputy Director James Dunn keeps telling Michigan Government that our veterans are getting..
