My oldest 88-year-old friend entered Feros Village for ongoing care. After paying a large amount of money, she was told after three weeks to move out ‘as she could find herself sleeping in a room that was being destroyed by machinery aiding future development’.
This shock resulted in high trauma, anxiety, and terrifying nightmares. She was aided by her family to move. This abuse defies the Aged Care Human Rights Charter.
Bullying is a crime and intense trauma is the result. The lesson for society is never let cronies in any position of care for your loved elders. It is obvious that the lack of empathy, and strategies to aid development $$$$$ for cronies will always take precedence over legally ratified human rights that uphold and demand aged care.
Many examples exist in critical literature (e.g. the book Game of Mates). Resist and always question authority.
