Granted, there is no dignity in death but those charged with the care of others in their final days are responsible for making sure the passage is as dignified as possible. Burn in Hell, you pieces of shit.

I work in a laboratory and often deal with medical staff. I can attest that the medical industry is riddled with crappy, lazy people.
InfocalypseRising
While the Daily Mail is trash, this wouldn't surprise me. My grandfather was basically murdered by a nurse on a power trip.
AHorseOfCourseMaybeAChangeling
The real kicker is that during a interview of the nurse they showed her the video footage... the look on her face was that of "i am fucked".
LurkyMcLurker
Thank God for that camera

Amen. Just think how many times this kind of thing has happened before we had the technology to discreetly record it.

I vote we deny them all oxygen like they denied him.

Yeah ok but people need to realise that this is more or less normal for nursing homes. They are the bedlam houses of the 21st century. 1/

If you think this is scandalous, you need to realise that it's happening everyday to dozens of thousands of people.

That is horrible, but after having human interaction that sucks it doesn’t surprise me that things like this happen.

I worked in a nursing home for awhile, yep it was difficult and patience was tested...BUT I always treated the residents as if they were GMA

I visit a nursing home every week and am not in the least bit shocked. It's a terrible place and the employees don't care.
mustachefleas
Depends where you go. Some are awful and some are great
Mauricethegiraffe
Get fucked. I've never met anyone as hard working or more caring than my cos at a nursing home. Yet we get shat on, literally + figuratively

Usually really expensive yet they underpay their staff. Recipe for disaster.

shinagami091
That’s because they get paid chicken scratch and most of the workers are barely certified to empty a bed pan
destinoz
That would explain general incompetence and lack of qualifications of the staff, but not the cold indifference shown here.
Fleuraluna
Good nursing homes exist. Look for one with an endowment fund. SMELL the place, check the food. Check online for complaints/state sanctions.
Thejunkfoodkid
I'm so nervous for when my mom can no longer care for herself. She had no money and I'm not making enough to pay for really good care
AccountCreatedToUpvoteDogs
Depending on how literal "no money" is, know that Medicaid exists. My FIL gets a shared room for memory care covered by Oregon. But has (1)

(2) nothing to his name and they take all but $150/mo of his social security towards it. Middle class is mostly screwed, price tag is $4200

As someone who works in long term care this is infuriating! It's our duty and honor to treat our residents with dignity. Fuck these people.
MeownaBell
I’m a CNA and this just broke my heart. I couldn’t imagine ever doing that to any of my residents
VizenFatale
I'm a nurse, this is disgusting. It's your fucking job to help people, this isn't neglect, it's malicious. No sympathy for shitty nurses.
wonkywilma
I agree me too. Never seen this behavior. Gross
NurseFeelgood
I can understand a nervous chuckle if something goes wrong during a code, but fucking code the guy for real and have your hysterics later.

In fairness this isn't a case of shitty nurse, it's a case of a shitty human being. Being bad at your job doesn't mean you laugh at death.

iheartdonut
It's very easy work to get into. Most cases CNA is only like 4 week class. Decent pay, and little screening. Most cases not even drug tests.
iheartdonut
I don't believe anyone goes in with bad intent, but corporate and everyday death wears people down. Not enough people per unit. Low funding.
iheartdonut
And corporate greed robs people of their humility. The system needs to be fixed. The training needs to be better. It needs better funding.

Why is it an important detail that he is a veteran?
minipancho94
may have been a VA facility as @lotard said, or simply to stir up more outrage/emotion from the reader.
