Thank you MaryPat. I appreciate your kind words and your practical advice. There are actually were two facilities involved in his healthcare. He was at a Pruitt facility for nine weeks before being transferred to a small 15 bed assisted living facility. I’m pretty sure Pruitt did not have a doctor evaluate him before being transferred. In fact, the so-called social worker at Pruitt kept pushing this one facility and told us that hospice was not an option. I’m sure he got a kick back. I think they’re both culpable.

Oh, this is so heartbreaking and infuriating, and probably impossible to prove. If someone contacts the state health department, though, your information could make a difference for other residents, and their families. Hugs.

actually just heard from a lawyer this morning telling me that we had a slim-to-none chance of getting a settlement and he would not take the case. At least he took the time to explain things, which is more than we've gotten from anyone else. But I agree about reporting to the state health department. Time to move forward...
