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.
Next time you go to an SNF(skilled nursing facility, ~cough whisper semiskilled, cough~ironically pronounced sniff) and the staff hands you paperwork, grab the paperwork holding it upside down, tell the staff that it is printed upside down, quickly ask them to reprint it. The key is to be quick with the asking as soon as you have the paper.
