I’m so proud of you doing this , I work in the medical field I’ve worked nursing home , trauma hospitals in St.Louis , Missouri and in retail but the nursing home was the worst, we distributed medications to the nursing homes and I’ve even had to do emergency runs for patients just being and admitted and I was only 18 at the time but I was able to see how poorly they were taken care of 40 years ago and now my dad is one at 96 and it hasn’t changed , his mind is there but the body is home he’s bedridden he can’t get out of bed to go the bathroom by himself or go get a snack it’s emotionally , physically , and draining on me 😢😢😢 the system has to change ❤bless you for doing this

This was an amazing documentary !

When my dad lived with me until he went into the nursing home I always tried to get someone in to shall I say keep him company and get him to walk more while I was working but he refused that , and even after he developed pneumonia and went to rehab he refused to do the exercises and yes he’s 96 and tired , so there are 2 things they needed to give him more time to gain his strength back before rehab and then dad had to want to mentally and physical once he could get his strength back but he did refuse therapy and we appealed and they denied it and I’m sure it’s due to his age , which is wrong because once he found out he was going upstairs to the nursing home he was upset and now wanted to do the therapy so he could go home but now it was to late because they wouldn’t due anymore therapy and he now physically couldn’t ! It’s a double edge sword ! Now he still wants to come home but he is bedridden and finding someone to take care of him 24/7 is impossible ! It’s a horrible situation all around ! That’s why I don’t wanna live to that age with dementia and Alzheimer’s on the rise and now frontal temporal dementia on the rise ! Just heartbreaking

My husband had the very beginning of dementia when we were in a head on car crash and passed away in the ambulance..I miss him so much but I'm also glad he left this world before he went away like this.. no matter what, my heart was going to break.. I'd rather have my heart broken than watch him go through this.

I worked in a nursing home for 10years and I see this all the time, kids that don’t visit their parents for years…never heard of 25 years. But once their parents are on their death bed they all come out of the woodwork and start trying to get a quick bond again…25 years not seeing your mother.. that’s horrible … but now she’s about to die let’s get back into her good books 💰 💴 💰 ⚰️

In those case…. I’d rather commit suicide…..

I work in a senior care facility. We do not make seniors sit around in wheelchairs in a hospital like setting all day. It’s inhumane. The food is good, varied and interesting. It’s decorated, social, soft, inviting and accommodating. The residents are given the appropriate autonomy they deserve while ensuring their safety. This video is horrifying.

Anita alove you are you verey hueman ❤❤❤❤❤

We all would love secret shoppers to be done till this day. Abuse and neglect and doxxing continue even more till this day. Keep an eye on your loved ones put up cameras if need be!

Very interesting and mind opening AND SAD!!!!!

7 years past by nothing improved it is even worse

everyone thinking of putting their wife or husband or grandmother or grandfather or aunt....in a nursing home NEED to live in one just for even a few days. Get together and hire a home care provider to care for them, but keep them home, it is disgraceful

you don't have cell phones in nursing homes , so not a complete immersion

Thank you Anita. Thought provoking and honest. Such an eye opener. God bless you.

I’m so grateful my family has keep our grandparents and parents at home.

I’m a CNA in NY. Trust me the Jamaicans will throw around and hit the patients. We need more caring CNAs and raise our wages. 😢

Of coarse she didn’t do this in USA! AND THERES A DAMN REASON! She knows it’s impossible here! Standards of care r SHIT!

The reality is really eye awakening the staff in britain dont have enough time to deal with those in their care due to staff shortages etc;

🫡

Those kind of restraints are no longer used in USA. Im a LTC nurse. Yes we are short staffed all the time but whats worse is never any visitors.

I work in dietary at a nursing home in the States. I'm only at the part where she gives up her belongings, and its true. If you must put someone in a nursing home, don't give them anything valuable, especially something that can be sent to laundry or the dish room. When I do dishes, I get so sad seeing all the fancy silverware and dishware come down having no way to place it back with its owner.

My foot pain has decided to set in I can’t look after my mother can put here

No Way In Hell !

I can’t look after myself and my mother at home

US male aged 49. Took my 74 yo mom OUT of a “nice” nursing home. I take care of her in our home. There is zero excuse to do otherwise, bc nobody else will. Period. No excuse. Their children are worthless

Can I request you to try India care home for me i was thinking about coming to this one in future 😮wow someone tied to bed all day can’t even do skin care how do they eat dinner and breakfast everyday I was thinking it is really had. You can’t even keep your own skin care products in your room little things like this drop. Can't keep own COVID 19 testing kits ín room. Can't keep own make up in room . Can't keep own medicine ín room. Little things like this every day really really hits me 🤣 thinking about this.

I am thinking about moving here

God don’t give me this short of life take me before 🎉

the patient is being tortured by restraining their will to move around what happens to dignity of the patient

I am thinking about this in future it suits me

what the heck not even a blanket?? And putting a restraining jacket is not acceptable

I’m in Colchester, England I will be 79 in January,I came here from WALES in September 1980: I was in a violent marriage from age 18 to 16 years later having 3 children,I had come from a wonderful home and was so trusting my husbands family was totally different disfunctual in the extreme,I had never experienced violence before or quarrels, I was the eldest of 5 children 4 girls and a boy when I was 9 years old ,my third sister was what they called retarded,it turned out years later she was high functioning autistic, My mum had asthma and to give her a break my sister who was petit like me went to a home about 60 miles away,After about 6 weeks someone phoned my parents telling them they should visit my sister KAY in the home, Mum phoned me up I lived 13 miles away with what I called my monster,she sounded worried,I had been from tiny the outspoken one we were all grammar school educated and could read before going to primary school and taught decorum, I went home the next day and Mum and my sister Ann travelled to this home in PONTYCLYN,, OMG they weren’t expecting us this sour looking woman in a nursing uniform said we should have made an appointment,well they told the wrong person didn’t they,she had a huge bunch of keys hanging from her belt,more like prison officer,I told her We wanted to see Kay now**,off she went I had my back to the big doors then I saw mum and my sister Ann put their hands over their mouths I turned around ,I hardly recognised my sister Kay she was always immaculately dressed,her hair was lovely, This poor girl in front of me had lost at least 3,5 stone the clothes hanging off her were obviously not hers but for someone older and much larger,She stood staring at me,I was very close to her growing up,she had scratches up her arms and neck,I ask how she got them,THEY** bite each other this creature said to me,KAY had never been violent in her life she was quiet ,I said where are my sisters belongings I want them now mum was sobbing,OH you can’t do that said this 6ft woman to 5ft me,how stupid,She bought a doctor through I told him I was taking my sister who looked like a skeleton home with me NOW* I took a photo out of my purse of KAY taken just 2 months before s❤he went there at my brothers birthday party,He looked at the woman and told her to getKays thing immediately, Kay was shaking,and said * Patty * my family called me that ,she wrapped her arms around me,I didn’t cry that could wait, her case was bought through hardly anything of hers was in it even her little doll dads boss had bought for her had gone and her lovely clothes, We got in the car dad hadn’t come he hated hospitals,A friend had driven us there,he looked shocked,mum sat in the front and I in the back with Ann+ Kay,she lay her head on my shoulder and I said we are going home Kay,she repeated it in about 15 minutes she was asleep my arm holding her close,That home was closed about 12 years later a big case abuse and neglect I’d written a letter I was told that was read out in the tribunal, All homes should be vetted and hospitals too I’m talking from experience,pat mason

Is this woman sick or just checking in on these peps?

For her not to like what was in the bowl she sure eating licking her lips 👄👄 lol.

Older people are just kids who've been on earth longer!! They get just as scared in vulnerable situations & deserve respect & compassion!! This video doesnt surprise me unfortunately

We never had mittens or in body jackets that seems to be OTT

I have worked in aged care most of my working life it's hard work but very awarding

I am 81 and terrified to have to go into one of these places! I pray that I die in my own home 🏡.

The nursing homes. I have worked in for very short periods of time were/are nowhere as nice as this one. However, never is there restraining anyone. It is illegal to restrain unless the person or staff are on danger, then they are sent out to hospital psych units. But in general the residents are living out the rest of their life in a hell hole. No dignity at all.

This is a BEAUTIFUL nursing home. It's clean, with kind caring wonderful staff who cares about their jobs and the residents. Singapore is known for being one of the cleanest countries in the world. Anita cries and is depressed what she is experiencing. THIS NOTHING! This particular nursing home in Singapore is heaven on earth! She needs to go to the US and get a reality check. She will really cry. 1. There are many nursing homes in the THOUSANDS not counting assisted living facilities in every state. 2. There are many ABUSES going on from neglect, the smell, sometimes the residents are left laying in their own urine and feces for hours because there's not enough staff. 3. No white person will be caught dead working as a caregiver because of the nature, exposure to mental exhaustion, other co-workers who are tattletales, behavioral issues by residents and LOW PAY! 4. No value or appreciation for what the caregivers go through. 5. Never pay raises. 6. HIGH TURNOVER 7. Caregivers quitting because it's backbreaking work. Let's just say if I was a elderly person needing nursing home care, I'll damn well move from US to Singapore 🇸🇬 👵🏼😀👍

in Canada the restrictions of the mits & security vest are prohibited....we can't even use wheelchair seatbelts on the elderly as they are a symbol of restrictive movement. yet those who are disabled need to have them on.

How old is this video....ive been a CNA for 12 yrs an strapping someone in bed is NEVER allowed no matter how many times they fall or get out of bed...its considered a restraint....this video has to be from a long time ago but no she had a cellphone....where is this?

Nursing home somewhere I would be happy to go peace for life from family

6/22/22..... This was excellent.....and Anita you were wonderful.....I cried off & on all thru this video thinking it could be me or someone that I love in there.....why don't they just feed these people good food....if they are unable to eat, there are very healthy foods that can be made with veggies and sweet desserts.....and everyone loves milk shakes.....make them a milk shake every day.....there are drinks that you can get like here in the US called BOOST , it is a protein drink, kinda expensive, but these people should have what they want and need as long as they live.... they don't have to make them try to eat or drink things that are horrible..... there are whole meal drinks too I have heard never had them but a couple I've heard about , the two I'm thinking about sounds good and they are guaranteed to like them or return them, I keep wanting to try them, but just haven't..... So I suppose you are going to try to keep your Mom at home as long as you can right ? Are you the only Daughter or sibling to help her, or was that your sister there or an aide to help her ? It says here you are a Television Presenter and a Host, so you are working and I assume can not do all this yourself....are you married and have family....I know it must be tough.... This was filmed in 2017 , 5 yrs. ago....things change, so how is your Mom now ?I hope still living and able to be at home....I think older people live longer when they stay home, but a lot of times it's a hardship for the rest of the family.....so I guess everyone has to do what they have to do....it is just sad to see the way those people lived and no one came to see them....if they had family, don't you wonder where they were ??? I just say God help these people....they need all the help they can get....thanks you Anita for showing us this, I really had no idea what went on in these places....not looking forward to going to one....for sure....God Bless you Anita for doing this documentary and putting it on You Tube....it was absolutely a piece of work and you deserve a medal for doing this.....Take care and stay strong.... Would love to see more follow ups on these kind of Documentaries ..... like every two yrs. or so.....one thing I want to say is for the people working in these homes, and the big bosses there, please feed these people good food that is the only thing they have to look forward to....try the ice cream shakes, and the protein drinks....not all of them are bad....I suppose you have them there in India too....right ? Thanks

This is Singapore! They have absolutely GREAT medical care. Try doing this in the United States and you may not live to get out! Sad but true! As a nurse here in the USA, I have watched my country's medical care plummet to an all-time low over the last decade. God Bless her for doing this, and I hope it helps someone. My heart and prayers go out to all people in one of these places.

I’ve seen residents set and wait.. for the loved ones to come see them.. and they never do. A lady would coke every day and say.. well do we have any more visits.. she was waiting for her son.

The nursing home I work at does do this. Also, if it was.. a Dr has to order if.. and it’s a last resort.

Happens more often then many are aware of. Luke 8:17 “For nothing is secret, that SHALL not be made manifest; neither any thing hid, that shall not be known and come abroad.” King James Version (KJV) kzbin.info/aero/PLzj7pX0oqWCQNF2lrG6ysbPhKXZb22S7C

When my parents got to point of needing help - I swore it would be over my dead body that I would have them in a nursing home. It was ok for respite as no one share my work load. Please look after your families- GOD WILL BLESS YOU

This care/facility is far superior to what I have seen in USA & Uk. I’m trained from all aspects and I appreciate this lady desire to have the best for these wonderful people.
