Also, you may want to file a complaint with the state, usually health department, and let them conduct an investigation, and let the nursing facility answer. I was in a nursing facility myself, and they like to drug you up, not treat correctly, abuse, steal, lie, and have similar experience with other relatives in 3 different facilities, all are the same. Someone from the family has to be there every day to oversee things, show someone cares for the patient, otherwise forget it. I narrowly escaped death with severe dehydration, and c-diff, which I caught in the facility, and they said nothing was wrong, had bed sores for three years thereafter. Staff couldn't even put in an IV, and my brother called 911, taken to the hospital where I stayed for 21 days, had acute kidney failure, and almost put on dialysis. I was supposed to go back, but never did!

Good luck.
