No wonder my mother's doctor told me if I hired caregivers they might not show up. Very illuminating. Also very sad. The good news is that awareness has improved, and I hope that will lead to action.

Thanks for stating this so clearly. I'd love to see the rotten apples work elsewhere. Garbage collection springs to mind. Lynn www.writeradvice.com Author of You Want Me to Do WHAT?

It's a difficult job, caring for some elderly folks. Some of 'em hit the people caring for them; some of the residents yell at the aids and nurses. And it appears to me that most caregivers are simply awesome humans. God bless those who really try to do a good job!!!!
