How wonderful, nursing home care can find a well for workers cheap. Obviously this is the most important reason the rates are so low and affordable. This is good! Or is it?
Terrible it is that so many employees serving the frail, the elderly, the vulnerable, who are available at minimum wage. At least it is better than foreigners who can’t even speak or understand English. Or should we institute language courses and self protection drills as part of the Nursing Home Curriculum for Patients?
How Ugly, to be in a society that imprisons for crime euphemistically designed for social rehabilitation only to breed recidivism. How further complicating we are with the attitude crying alarm that those employed serving our elderly should be people at one time imprisoned for crime.
What’s wrong with this picture? Look at the article entitled Study Finds Criminal Pasts of Nursing Home Workers which I have posted in my Archive. Click on the title to go there
Nothing at all; it reflects the reality of what we are, worse than that; it reflects loudly who we are! Loud and unforgiving is its message!
We as a culture, as a society, operate on the all inclusive predicate, “Survival of the Fittest.” In the picture painted in this article we see depicted no more than the result of the working of our “modus operandi.” The lesser fittest serving the least fittest.
Hell, that’s the way it works, otherwise it costs too much. In our culture we spare the cost of the penal system; we are frugal with the cost of nursing home operation because it might eat up profit.
What can one expect? If we enforce capital punishment for crime to save a buck, how about euthanasia to save more than a buck? Make sense?
