aide/orderly had treated her poorly and she was very hurt. She asked the aide to help her get in the chair
so that she could use the bathroom. The aide told her no and that she had to get in the bed. She asked
again and was told the same thing. Shortly after being put in the bed, my mom had an accident. When the
aide returned and found that she had soiled herself, her tone was demeaning and she said, This is just a
mess! (In a mean tone). My mom also said that she was very forceful while changing her. This is
unacceptable. My Mom said that she felt hurt and embarrassed. She should not be made to feel this way
and my family would like to know what the consequence will be for this behavior. We need to know that she
is safe and cared for while in this facility, we are officially requesting an apology from this worker and
assurance that this will not happen again. Sincerely, The family of [Resident R2] Request for incident
