do you fell that there is enough regulation over nursing homes?

If the proper management would take care of these situations when they happen, it would be a great help. And if they would sufficiently punish the ones who give the hard times to the reporting staff. After all, the reporting staff is going out on a limb, knowing of possible harrassment coming back. I think State Surveys should be done every few months, rather than every year, even though if my coworkers knew I felt this way, they would shun me. But, at least it would keep things running the way they should be. When state is due to come, you should see the way they all run around like chickens with their heads cut off, to right all the wrongs that they've let go.

Good topic, but sad. It happen, becasue most of those patients are old and abondoned by their kids. Kids should at lest be involved and check on their parents. I will never let my parents to be in nursing home. It is proven that they are better by staying in own house with limited help.
