The private nursing homes ought to be held accountable for the endless lift-assist calls, and start hiring competent staff, and paying their staff livable wages to do their jobs. Such a waste of resources. I've heard some fire departments have started charging for lift calls. Sounds like a swell idea.
"Not my patient," is the most infuriating thing that you hear literally EVERY SINGLE TIME. Luckily we don't get hammered by these lift assist calls that I read about on here, but obviously sometimes people do seriously need transport and that's perfectly fine, but how are all these people in here nobody's patient?
