What Hospice and sometimes your OWN relatives, will not tell you, when signing your love one into Hospice. My mom, passed away, in 2009, her death was hastened while in the care of (Vitas-HOSPICE) (Pembroke Pines Florida).
Unfortunately, animals have much louder Advocates for inhumane treatment against them (although they’re not human). Why is the abuse of animals a much more sensitive issue in America, and more important then inhuman, treatment of real human beings. Specifically the Terminal, the Sick and the Elderly?
These groups of people are targeted and funneled into Hospice (the silent killer) to cut Medicare cost.
The public has a right to know the truth about the (silent) practices used by the Hospice Organizations working in and through, our Hospitals, and Nursing Homes working in conjunction with Medicare.
Medicare’s sole agenda is to cut cost by any means necessary. Medicare’s idea of cutting cost is referring your love ones (the elderly, the terminal, and sick) to Hospice. Where the patient supply of medication is cut off. All except the morphine/methadone used to administer a quiet, rapid exit into eternity (someone is saving on their water bill as well because they are dehydrating their patients and not turning to the I.V drip).
Medicare’s idea of cutting cost is to withhold administering medication to the feeble (including blood thinners which prevent blood clotting for non mobile patients), diabetes medication is withheld, cholesterol, and high blood pressure meds are withheld too.
This is Medicare’s idea of cutting cost – writing addictive prescriptions, over medicate you, and then abruptly drop you from the excessive synthetic drugs; they hooked your body on. Then down the line tell you, they can not longer do anything else for you. By now your visits to the emergency room and hospital are so frequent (from the side effects of lifetime synthetic drugs) you know the staff including security. Occasionally you may get a nurse who will actually sympathize with you.
Written by-
Ron Panzer (President of Hospice Patient Alliance)
“Because of the savings hospice care can net the federal government through Medicare, Panzer believes the government doesn't want to hear any bad news about the industry—even news of murder. It would tarnish the image, turn people away who would otherwise use the industry for their relatives—maybe even make some stock prices tumble. It's also easy to falsify patient records—to make it look as though every effort was made to manage their pain for as long as they needed to die naturally, as the government requires hospices to do under the per-diem payment basis (for every day a patient is enrolled, not for each service rendered)—even if those efforts weren't made”.Hospice is an old war and I knew NOTHING about it. Yet many still do not know of this silent killer. Most of us learn, by happenstance, which is far too late.
We are left ignorant on purpose, in areas that have caused great impairment to us all. Why are we are not informed on medical healthcare decisions such as the Medicare-Hospice agenda toward the elderly? We have blurred the boundary lines pertaining to our laws and have stumbled over into homicide.
However, when we find an abused animal, we report it, and you will hear of it all over the media and on the talk shows. Everyday these rouge organizations administer an acute level of morphine intoxication to a vulnerable human being that leads to the cause of their death. The coroners know this, I dug-up reports online. But it is rare to hear of these findings on the News or the Talk Shows. In stead you hear about inhuman dog fights and groups of animals let by their owners to starve to death.
Well that’s what’s happening in these rogue Hospice Organizations. Their relatives (owners) have left them or has been convinced by hospice and their Doctor’s to withhold water (dehydrate) and starve them to death too, with a shot of morphine on the side finish the job. The first thing they tell you is to not give them water. How can anyone sit for hours next to their love one (who is able to swallow and absorb and not give them water) because the nurse and the Doctor’s advice you not too. Is it because the staff do not expect anyone to stay for hours or even days, so it’s easy to deteriorate a person through DEHYDRATION.
Perhaps, we desire to advocate for animals because they can not speak for themselves? A severely dehydrated, medicated human being can not communicate verbally either! So, where is the sympathy? Or is it because we’ve discovered we need to be loved too, and an animal is the least expensive and least troublesome of the two choices. Perhaps it is because we can put an animal down, as the animal, (just like a vulnerable human being) is unable to communicate verbally- neither has no say so in the matter.
Have we become delusional? You cannot substitute an animal for a human being. A delusion comes to distract us from the truth and if repeated enough times others will believe the delusion also, and repeat it. A reprobate mind.
Why is there not a voice that will dissect, uncover and unveil what is happened REALLY happening, right here in America. Everyday and every night bodies are FORCED into eternity, right under our noise thorough dehydration and acute morphine intoxication, and starved to death intentionally in other words, calculated homicide, a medical kill, homicide. You will find several articles on the Topic INCLUDING "The Side Effects of Morphine." Please look it up!!
The Institution of Hospice has grown away from its original purpose, taking on a dark agenda, devouring the terminally ill and feeding off the vulnerable, the sick and the elderly by any means necessary. Including seductive kick-backs for hospice referrals. Even the nursing homes receive kick-backs and bonuses for Hospice referrals.
I am reminded of the old Charleston Heston movie, entitled Solent Green- where the elderly were carted off in secrecy, never to return again targeted to be used as a food substitute in the famine. However, no one knew the true ingredients or the source of their daily food rations (they were literally feeding off the elderly).
At least now we are cognizant of dishonorable Doctors who’ve greased their palms while lining the pockets of Pharmaceutical Companies for years. For years they have over medicating us with extensive (lifetime) prescriptions, addictive substances, kick-backs and incorporating excessive branding as a part-time side job in their practice.
It use to be hard to embrace the thought that your Physician would write a prescription with the intent of padding his or her own pocket. A shocking thought to digest in the pass but now there is wanton corruption of all sorts of body trafficking that is still not front page news but should be.

ReplyDeleteI have a hospice horror story now
i was defending him i kick them out as soon as she told me he would die but that was a week ago
what do i do now
February 14, 2010 8:22 AM
http://hospicekills.blogspot.com/2007/09/how-do-we-not-know.html
I need help. My husband was told less then a year on January 13 NY January 28he died a very awful death. I am still horrified. What did u do.
DeleteSorry for anyone who had to go through a hospice horror - we need to get the world out about how hospice kills - there is a such a thing as a hospice "Pro Life Pledge" and you can find it here in my own blog about hospice. I am linking your site to mine and hope you will do the same. All we can do is hopefully educate some people so they will have the info that we did not at the time we had to go through our own nightmare experiences with hospice. I will never get over it - the family is torn apart...it was my sister (the nurse and chief care giver for our parents on hospice at home) which "Killed Them Softly" much against certain family members wills....the rest who went along with it just simply didnt have a clue,...but a few of us took it upon ourselves to RESEARCH hospice care and "back-door euthansia" which, as you know, is more prevelant than most people think; http://involuntarybackdooreuthansia.blogspot.com/
ReplyDeleteKeep up the good work and sorry for your troubles.

DeleteMy stepmom had my father euthanized and I was horrified as was my sister. We live with the guilt of not being able to stop it and will forever see my Dad struggle to live for ten days without food and water. The family is torn and broken. Becker-shoop Wisconsin
DeleteYou have given me an answer to what was up with the Hospice that my sister in law was so efficient at getting, along with my family's estate, she is a lawyer and was consulting with Louisiana Health Dept in order to get rid of both of my parents, and our nurse who knew what was going on. Where are our laws?
DeleteI'm in Canada and I just went through this with my mother. It was as if they were chemically pulling the plug. She had 6 months and was dead within 2 weeks of hospice care. They removed insulin, blood thinners as they increased their doses of morphine and Ativan. Sadly my mother did suffer in the end. She did not peacefully fall asleep. The nurses refused to call the doctor. She was awake struggling for breath strange at me the whole time
DeleteMy husband had cardiac arrest in a hospital, and they didn't discover it until he had suffered brain damage. I feel it was their fault, since they did nothing to protect his heart, and they also didn't monitor him. After the cardiac arrest they tried to bully me into letting them pull the plug. They harassed me constantly. I refused to go along with them, and wanted them to work with him and give him a chance. Eventually he had a second CA, which might have been prevented had they implanted a defibrillator, and he died. All this really opened my eyes about the agenda for Medicare patients. Killing a defenseless human being is evil, even if it's being done by default.
DeleteI just went through this horror and can not bear the pain of not knowing better. My mother went into a coma and there was really no reason other than she was overmedicated with a morphone ativan cocktail. I am so heartbroken I can't even describe. They must be exposed so Christians like me don't sacrifice their relationship with the Father and Son in heaven. I thought I was doing the right thing for my mother but they clearly killed her. I am SICK over this and can't stop crying. Will I ever be forgiven for this wicked deception hospice portrayed and I fell prey?
DeleteWhy would hospice want to hasten death if they are getting money from medicare while they are there? I am just curious as why. Anyone have thoughts on that for me?
ReplyDeleteI think they're on the in and out they are like on an assemby line type of business
DeleteI think there are limits on amounts also that can be paid. My mom was in a Salem Oregon one, and when I was able to get to Oregon (I live in a different state) I was immediately pulled into the hospice owner's office about the $$. She died Jan 29, 2012 after only about 4 weeks there...about a month. I can't remember all the details now (and I normally have an excellent memory) because I was in such a fog and stressed because my 2 older siblings left everything for me to handle...I had to take care of everything and didn't know really what I was doing or dealing with...AND THEY took advantage of that...families are distraught and not much of objective people. I just know that a hospice person went to her apartment before they moved her to hospice and got her to sign all the papers...Nobody else had a say in it because, like the hospice people kept telling me, "your mother signed the papers while she was fully cognizant". I remember her telling me the lady was coming to her apartment (that was in first part of December, when she was still fine. I told her she could come and stay with me, I had a spare room in my small house because my son had moved out for college. She said she couldn't make the trip that far. I beg to differ. She would have been fine, she just needed to have all her stuff in the car and could have sat back and "left the driving to me"!!
DeleteShe was diagnosed with lung cancer in early November. I visited for over a week at Thanksgiving and we had a nice time. She had to wait for about 1 month before she got into the cancer clinic (I thought that was bad too). After she saw the doctor in early December, AND right after she signed those papers, she was given sh*t loads of morphine. Of course she was so doped up and disoriented that she then was moved to the hospice at end of Dec and died about a month later. She was a tough 'ol gal. If she hadn't been a smoker she would have lived a long life.
When I went down again in January to take care of her old apartment and all the financial and other matters she had them quit giving her so much morphine and seemed to be doing better. After I went back home they "upped" her dose and she quickly deteriorated. I was having trouble getting back down there due to my old car unable to make another trip, and was trying to get other family members to go so I could get a ride but she died. So, I feel guilty not being there too. Last time I talked to her I said I was working on getting down there. Anyways, the morphine got her and they still put Lung Cancer as cause of death.
My sweet beloved aunt Gil was speaking clearly and eating full meals the day before she went in. Within one day, she
Deletewas unable to form words, in spite of her
obvious immense effort. They said it was her cancer that caused her to sleep and not speak. Oddly, that slow growing cancer had been inside of her for nine years before that, and she spoke just fine.
I asked why they would not give her fluids
to drink or an IV. I was told by the stepford nurse that," HOSPICE DOES NOT promote death or enhance life."
If you immediately dope up a patient and dehydrate them, any one, sick or not, will die soon.
My aunt was murdered. I also read that although hospice wont admit it, one of the first drugs administered is the one that
inhibits speech. I guess hospice fears people being able to beg for food or water,
or worse, to ask them to stop the overdose. It's tragic that most of us humans just roll over and allow these greedy companies to make decisions for
most of our lives. If you really love and respect your sick family member, let them
die at home, still able to have their last words and nourishment until the good Lord
decides they're ready to go.
Yep. I am with the same issue now! The exact same! Vitas San Antonio Tx. The same!!
DeleteTHIS IS AN OUTRAGE!
DeleteAvoid hospice care at all costs by taking preemptive measures (where possible) to avoid these evils places, such as encouraging your elderly relatives and others you may know to get adequate exercise (45 minutes of walking a day and for the elderly three 15 minute walks a day to space out exertion); obtain adequate amounts of natural sunlight while avoiding the noon day sun; eat healthy food and avoiding smoking and intoxicating drinks; drink purified water/spring water; and eating a healthy diet. Additionally, I have been told that the mechanism in the brain that controls the signal for warning the body to drink water turns off or does not work properly in many elderly people resulting in their not drinking adequate amounts of water which will lead to the deterioration of the mind and body -- so make sure the elderly people you know are drinking adequate amounts of water throughout the day in order that their bodies are properly hydrated and that toxins are more readily removed from their bodies.
DeleteThis article is bogus bullshit.
DeleteI agree wholeheartedly.
DeleteI was a Hospice nurse for 13 years as well as a huge patient advocate. I have NEVER heard of a Hospice withholding food or drink from someone that was able to eat or drink. That is ridiculous. We have even placed feeding tubes when a patient did not have a lower jaw from cancer but was still hungry.
Medicare pays for Hospice true. It pays on a monthly basis and prorates when a patient is on less then that. Medicare pays hospice a set amount. This needs to cover not only medications but MD, Staff, and any equipment needed such as bed, walker, oxygen, pain pump, etc.
When a patient is on Hospice they (Hospice) are responsible for paying for All medications that are related to the terminal diagnosi out of these said funds. (Patches, and some meds are very costly). However Medicare will continue to pay for ANY medication or care NOT related to the terminal diagnosis. Example: if a patient is on hospice due to lung cancer your regular Medicare will continue to pay for and provide care for diabetes, hypertension, CHF etc. They will even continue to cover dialysis as long as a MD certified that renal failure is not related to the terminal Dx.
So when I read that Hospice only cares about money. I had to laugh. Hospice is NOT a money maker for any hospital. Otherwise you would not have Hospices closing from lack of support. Something that has happened all over the country. The very statement that Hospice wants patients "dead" fast is such a ignorant statement. If Hospice was in the business to "kill" people for money they would keep them on for as long as possible. When a patient passes away a day or two after admission to hospice that hospice loses a great deal of money.
It saddens me to read people's experiences and perception of the care their loved one receives. Rather than taking my word. Call Medicare and get informed. If you truly feel that Hospice did not do right by your loved one contact Medicare and the State. They are audited like any other medical facility. Complain, educate yourself. Don't just throw this blanket shit on a agency that for most is wonderful and has people dedicated to helping decrease sometimes horrible symptoms related to the terminal diagnosis many suffer from.
That's a lie, my dad just past away last month, due to I re dose of morphine and Ativan there was no i,v, no food, just a plate of what they call junk, he's was fine before he was put in there by a woman who said she was married to him and wasn't, he tried to get up and leave he asked to leave and they restrain him and administered more morpine , you guys get paid to kill people, and I'm gonna get justice for my dad, how can you live with your self everyday knowing what you did to people's family. I have pictures 2 weeks before he was put there and pictures of after he was put there, how horrifying.

DeleteTina Johnson I would live to talk to you we are going through a real life horror story as we speak with my mother in law. We do not know what to do they tell us our hands are tied his sister somehow got Power of attorney while my husband was out of town. Then she stuck her in there we just went through this about 2 months ago same Thing & we got her out of it then when my husband let his guard down a little that's when she went & got power of attorney. They have her on a mprphine, adivan & haldol coctail now. When she went in she was eeatig, drinking & loving us all the next day she's in a coma not doing anything. She doesn't have cancer or anything like that, we are so desperately tryi.g to fight for her life & we do not know what to do! Please if anyone has any suggestions please five us some ideas. We don't know what to do time is running out for her. Can we take her out of there & bring her home? What to do. Rebecca.
DeleteThey did this to my mom 2 years ago. Don't leave her side and call an attorney and the police. Don't wait. Once they start the cocktail they don't last. My mom would point to her open mouth in her semi coma they induced. So even in a coma she wanted water. I will NEVER get that out of my head. Nevet
DeleteCocktail? That's what my husband said. They game him a Vietnam cocktail. But its not in his papers. Died within 32 of getting it.
DeleteMedicare will only pay so much. Patients only live until Medicare is running out. My dad passed the day after he signed papers to let us give him Barley Green through his feeding tube. He signed it himself! And the next day he was gone.
DeleteAre they're support groups where people help each other, share information? How do you get hospice records about deaths of parents etc...? How to navigate trying to investigates a loved ones death at the hands of hospice? a link or something. Thanks
DeleteAre they're support groups where people help each other, share information? How do you get hospice records about deaths of parents etc...? How to navigate trying to investigates a loved ones death at the hands of hospice? a link or something. Thanks
Deletethis is happening with my uncle right now and it true everything that is being said and we need to do something about it i believe they can hear everything being said and feel all of it but they are so weak and thirsty and hungry that they just lay there and you think their sleeping but they are really screaming inside saying "im here im hungry help me i dont wanna die"but they cant say it out loud the reason hospice say "we will help you die peacfully " is because thats what they want the family to believe . they want you to think that your loved one is sleeping and at peace but really they are being doped up and starved to the point that they cant open theirs eyes and mouth to tell you. HOSPICE ARE MURDING LYERS!!!!!!!!!!!! IT SHOULD BE ILLEGAL TO ABUSE PEOPLE!!!!! ITS UP TO US TO FIGHT AND GET THE WORD OUT IN ORDER TO STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING TO OTHER PEOPLE. HOSPICE IS WORSE THAN THE DEATH PENALTY!!!!1
ReplyDeleteYou are absolutely right and it's all about money .
DeleteMy Mother was able to get with a crooked nursing director here in Cincinnati and she paid them to kill my 67 year old father in there. It was one of the most devastating things I have ever seen and most bizarre. I knew he wasn't dying but Optum Hospice was brought in by the crooked director..he was heavily drugged, starved and abused. The local police district to help me stop this. My mother who is mentally ill had all of this done and paid the staff quite well..I suffer from this every day of my life..I had my father's back for the past 10 years from her and was treated as if I was the enemy. You never get over this ever..
DeleteI agree. I just watched my friend die whose husband put her in hospice. She could not communicate and was too sleepy to eat or drink. In 4 days she was dead and the last day she was trying to speak through her paralyzed face, yelling something. Now I'm sure they killed her. And her husband wanted this.
DeleteWhy would hospice want to hasten death? Oh, because they've been fed the "quality of life" line that equates sick and crippled humans with sick, crippled animals. Also because everyone they touch dies within a week or so, and they may not realize morphine/ativan/haldol does the job. And also because there are some sickos out there who gravitate to hospice jobs because they enjoy killing. I watched Gilchrist Hospice kill my mother with morphine and ativan (she was in end stage COPD) ignoring my protests because another of my mother's children had POA. Now they say she was dying anyway. Sorry, the day of her first dose of morphine to "relax her airways" she told me I was foolish to worry it would kill her. Five days later she died in a stupor resulting from too much morphine and too much ativan, and with-holding of breathing treatments and heart medicine. Hospice has been co-opted by the "right-to-die" hyenas. I would not put a sick dog in hospice care unless I wanted him drugged to death ASAP.
ReplyDeleteI am living this horror now. They are killing my Mom as we speak and I am helpless to stop them. I could not stand around an watch this murder. My other siblings all by her side, I know what Hospice is doing and I cannot stop them. I ask the Doctor to stop giving her so much medicine and he refused, said I would prolong her suffering. She is suffering tremendously. This has been going on for over 24 hours, the dying anyway, she has only been there 5 days. They have her on Morphine, Ativan, and Haldol. This was all given to her without my permission and I am her health care surrogate. I believe her rights were violated. She was put into a drug induced coma and is slowly being killed and I am helpless to stop them. I am sick with grief and anger. What right does Hospice have to take upon themselves the decision to take a human beings life and then say they are comforting them when the patient cannot even voice their opposition. I am devastated and scarred. The moans of my Mother will be etched in my mind forever, her breath upon my hair, her attempt to communicate and tell me help her! Oh God forgive me.
ReplyDeleteI was almost in tears from reading your story. I'm a Hospice Nurse and I ABSOLUTELY HATE IT. I only medicate those patients that are actually suffering from cancer pain. Other than that I don't medicate. I will chart I have given the Morphine,Ativan, and Haldol but it is going right down the sink. There are 2 types of Hospice Nurses: the Angels and the Devils and we recognize each other immediately. The Angels always come out on top cause God always prevails. I can keep my patient alive for 10 days by giving them water, bathing them, orange juice and sunlight. Also the RN Case Manager working the car has to be an angel as well. But I fight for My patients because I have to answer to God. I'm currently going to school to get my RN so I can run like hell away from hospice. There are some good nurses out there that wk hospice everyday that are advocates for the patient like myself. I'm sorry for your loss, and those killer hospice companies one day will have to face God in the end.
DeleteOh dear LOrd in heaven you have me in tears- my mom got "legally murdered" last year 2012 at one of those hospices. It's inhumane- - I won't even get into the details of their deceptive ways to lure people. My sweet trusting mother fell prey, they didn't want her speaking her native tongue so they silenced her- I spoke to several attorneys etc. They are not subject to the same laws as say nursing homes- which I thoght were bad but compared to hospices they are heaven-at least you have a chance to get help to get out. Sooner or later when mass amounts of people find out what they are really all aboutn then it will be harder to trick people.-I just can' believe this happens in this country. My mom came here for a bettter life only to die in that fasion deprived of her medicine insulin, water and nutition and getting morphined to death. My mom wanted to live-taking care of herself and managing her diabetes, eating properly.It seems they love to get the family members at odds with each other-especially those that are against them. My mom survived a Russian concentration camp only to go through ultimate horror and disrespectfully die. I am just telling the truth from my heart and have only prayers to help and beautiful memories of my mom-death for profit,that's what it is- and even the "nonprofits" are profitable like ceo's, making $700,000 a year plus bonuses, etc.Well thanks for sharing and it has definately been a horific experience and intimidating-
DeleteMy heart aches for you. My Mother passed away December 11, 2013. She was killed by the hospice nurse. My brother was mislead. These people have been trying to kill her for over a year. When ever my Mother would mentioned "Its just not a good day", or have the aches and pains of a normal 93 year old woman. Last January(2012) Mother developed flu like symptoms. The hospice nurse said it was the "dying process" Mother recovered inspite of being administered a plethora of medication. Later in 2012 hospice told her that she was too well and they may have to dismiss her. Thanksgiving week she developed a slight fever and headache. The nurse started the morphine and atavan. She kept trying to get the caretakers to give it to her, one I know of refused. So my brother would administer the drugs. The hospice nurse would fill the syringes with the drugs so there was no "mistake" in the dosage. I tried to talk to my brother, but he was immovable. I saw my Mother in bed barely able to communicate. Her caretakers were gentle and concerned. They would ask if she was hungry. She could say yes or not and most of the time said yes. At one point she even asked what there was to eat. At first the hospice nurse said not to insist that she eat. Then she instructed all NOT to offer food or water. She instructed us only to wet her lips and inside of her mouth with a mixture of water and olive oil. We were instructed to reposition her. Each time the nurse came in which was often several times a day, she would stand on one side of the bed, the caretaker on the other, and the nurse would hold class on the "dying process". I am not going to recount what she said but it was graphic and it was said acrosse the bed where my Mother lay. She was conscious. At one point Mother lifted her arms toward her beloved caretaker and called her name as if for help. I too was helpless. My brother had been given complete control and he turned it over to hospice and complied with all instructions. I don't know what to do about this horrible horrible industry. I don't know about all of the people employed by hospice, but I can tell you this one nurse "ENJOYED" her job. The staff . . .I am heartsick. I should have done more. . .I am so sorry Mom. . .so so sorry.
DeleteI am living the same nightmare but my stepmom was POA. I haven't spoken to her in almost 2 years since I witnessed this murder and couldn't stop it. I will never forget the night my half sister pushed me out of the room when I told my dad I tried to stop them. I will live with this nightmare forever and I am so sorry Dad.
DeleteI am there with you, trying to get hospice OUT of my mother's house. She knows the difference and said she didn't want the type of health care that does not give her the chance to go the hospital when she needs it. She told the nurses and doctors she did not want hospice. I talked to the Case Manager at the hospital and the social worker and we set up In Home Health Care. My sister picked her up and when I went to visit, I discovered Hospice had reared it's ugly head. My Mom has hospice care. She is on morphine, Ativan and when I asked for anti nausea meds, they offered Haldol. I said NO. They asked me who I was and my credentials, so fortunately my mother was aware enough to say NO. But now she is so out of it. I am still fighting, and the minute she has difficulty breathing, I am taking her to ER. I don't care, I will break the contract. No one deserves Hospice. Their Primary can give them pain meds IF they are in pain. and health care can come to the house some times. People like hospice because they don't have time to care for their loved ones.
DeleteLiving with this nightmare since 08/13/15. I don't sleep and I literally live with this every day of life. What they did to him in there is beyond horrible and sadistic. They had 2 Nurse's aids kill him with syringes. Nurses' aids are not allowed to have syringes..how is this legal ?
DeleteI was going through the exact same thing with aseracare hospice. Fortunately, I caught on right away as to what they were doing and even though they pressured me and even brought in my two sisters and pressured them, I fought back and told them I refused to give her that cocktail. She went from Lively and animated to a zombie who could not communicate within a very short time. It was obvious it was the cocktail but their young, naive, and inexperienced so-called social director kept insisting it was just her quote unquote decline. It is so much bullshit I wanted to puke. I demanded a different nurse and they sent one who had not been indoctrinated completely yet who still had compassion for life because she had only been with them for 3 months. So far she is working with me to try to get her better as she knows that is what I want. I do not allow her to push the drugs on me so she stopped even trying. I call them on everything. Fortunately, I had already been researching what the government is doing to our elderly and had an idea what might occur. With the new Obamacare death panels sometime between the ages of 75 and 85 we become worthless to society because we are no longer gainfully employed and making the rich richer. So that is the time we are expected to offer up the rest of our lives and head for the great beyond. This Muslim terrorist in the White House who is not only killing off our elderly through the hospice program but killing off the entire population through Chemtrails spraying, has got to be impeached. If Hillary gets in behind him we are doomed. Each and everyone of us will eventually become a victim of the government so this should be motivation to do what needs to be done and get this culling of the population stopped.
DeleteAmen. I watch my friend of only 62 get murdered, unable to speak, paralyzed by medicine. Labored breathing until she took her last breath. Not being family, what could I do? I will speak out for them all. On radio.
DeleteThank you!!
DeleteMy Mother died Friday afternoon 8/17/2012 under the care of Community Hospice Jacksonville Florida. They murdered her with a drug overdose as we watched. This took them less than 5 days to set up the backdrop to kill her. She went there Monday afternoon and died Friday afternoon a horrible miserable death. God help us a Country that would allow such travesty. A violation of civil rights and civil liberties. BEWARE of the combo of Morphine, Ativan, Haldol these medications are used to slowly bring your loved one to their death. First they will appear comatose but the staff will assure you and tell you to give it time to see if the patient stabilizes. Don't be fooled by the illusion of compassion and beware of words like stabilize, active dying, agitation, these are Hospice words used to describe the patients dying process they are inducing with drugs! The patient is agitated because of the drugs given for pain when they first arrive, so they give them more drugs to counteract the agitation but this makes them comatose unable to communicate with you and all the while, unknown to you, Hospice is killing them slowing! Placing them into a comatose state and then increasing the amount and frequency of the medications until the patient slips into death! I am sick with grief and the horror of this will remain with me forever! HOSPICE KILLS!
ReplyDeleteI live in jacksonville, fl also... My mother died april 3, 2013. I was pressured by the doctors and the case workers.. being the only poa and the only sibling there to help me decide. At first I didnt sign the papers, Mom had COPD and she was 88. I miss her so. She had been living with me for many years and then in Nov 2012 she was in and out of the rehabs and hospitals. She had mostly UTI's these infections never cleared up. She also had A FIB, enlarged chamber of the heart, Aspiration Pneumonia there in the hospital this last time. She had stopped eating. So I know my mom wouldnt have lived much longer, she would get iv's but then they have to give her lots of lasix to drain the extra fluids. Her legs and arms would swell. I placed her reluctantly in Hadow Hospice. I couldnt bring her back home her oxygen was way to low, she was at 77, our oxygen concentrator would not have helped. she couldnt move and slept all the time. She would be awake maybe 5 min out of every few hours. I would have taken that! The nursing home with her having to share a room and she was in the "dying" process???? well you know sometimes people dont have manners and they keep their TV up so loud, u cant even talk.. We had just gone through that with one place. (the Atrium) so only if i could have afforded a private room, my mom I think would have possibly lived 2 more weeks... maybe. But then without eating, it would have not been good. So If what I have read in the last few hours I would not have placed my mom in hospice. It would have been a nursing home if it wasnt home. I just dont think I like Hospice, she was only there 2 days. They gave her morphine 5 mg, which all she was hurting was from laying in bed for 2 weeks. she had no other pain.. this i knew, she was able to speak before she became so sleepy at the hospital. They had started giving her 1 mg of morphine every 4 hours. They also gave mom antivan at hospice... they gave her 1 mg at first. They did that in the hospital for a pic line and she slept for 3 days. another time they gave her .5 mg (1/2 mg) and she slept for almost 2 days. So with 1 mg coming in at hospice and I tried to tell them dont give her but a pinch of antivan and they didnt listen. they said the Dr will decide. well that 1 mg knock my mom out and then the morphine on top of it.. I was hoping to have several days with my mom. I have heard of other people going in there and finding out that they are only in there for avg amount of 2 days. It has been 4 weeks since my mom has been gone. I wished I had stumbled upon this sooner.

I just went through the same thing with Hospice and my brother. It was absolutely horrifying to watch him being doped up. He was asked if he was in pain and said no -- the nurse five minutes later told his wife I'm giving him morphine for his pain .. then proceeded to show her how to keep him doped up so he had no energy to eat anything and to barely speak. On the second day, surrounded by his loved ones the Hospice nurse told his wife everyone needed to leave because he 'needed his rest' -- NEEDED HIS REST? The problem was we were keeping him alive for a few more hours, a few more days. The final straw was as he asked me for a sip of water I was told that when he awoke and asked for something, even a sip of water we were not to give it to him. It was obvious at that point they were killing him quickly but with his wife and three other sisters and two brothers who would not listen - I left and couldn't go back, could not watch him begging for water with his eyes and not able to give it to him. It has caused rifts in this family that will never heal but I learned a good lesson and hope I can pass it on to anyone that will listen.
ReplyDeleteMy father is being killed right now. Everything you just described is true. I just had the "water" incidence yesterday. He had been refusing to eat or drink (too weak from the morphine) but I was there at just the right time and got him to drink 12 ounces of water and some Ensure. Next thing I know I'm being called to the nurses desk for a phone call from my brother. He sounded demon possessed and said that if I give him ANYTHING to eat or drink I would be banned from seeing him. I said "fine, I'll call the cops." I told the "tattling" nurse that I was turning him in for elder abuse. This has changed my whole attitude about life. I don't want to live in a world where this is legal. He would have been better off under the care of a veterinarian or with a painless injection in prison. A dentist could probably manage his pain better. (Prior to the morphine his doctor only ordered two 325 mg. of tylenol!!) This is homicide with government backing. Obamacare will make things even worse. They will get rid of the elderly through euthanasia and say they have saved money on medicaid because of Obamacare. Even after what happened with Terri Shiavo nothing has changed. I remember being upset and stressed about that case, never did I dream it would happen in my own family. As far as I am concerned they (and hospice) are murderers. I gave a dying man a cup of cold water and got "banned".The other family members who think this is "okay" make all these religious posts on Facebook and try to get sympathy for themselves about their father dying (at their hands). Apparently they didn't see the part that says: "I was hungry and you gave me no food, thirsty and you gave me no drink...inasmuch as you did it not unto the least of these my brethren, you did it not to me". Their hypocrisy literally gags me. (and how did they miss "Thou shalt not kill"?) My Dad put God first his whole life, I can only imagine how he feels ("My God my God why have thou forsaken me")being betrayed and put to death by two of his own kids. There is always a "Judas" right before the end. This is not "comfort care". (They tell people that hospice is keeping him "comfortable") This is worse than him dying from his COPD and cancer. He was mobile and functioning before. I think he knew that he was going to be killed and tried hard to stay "moving" walking or using the wheelchair down the hallways, crawling out of bed, wanted to stay by the exit door, etc. and then he would be knocked out the next day, unable to do anything. Congress better not even THINK of exempting themselves from Obamacare. They are getting old too and need to live with the full consequences, just like we will.
DeleteHi-
DeleteI feel your pain. My sister seemed to have changed. We are Christians (suppose to be anyways) and she tells me that she will revoke Hospice and with the same breath say she didn't say it or that she told me to revoke them. God is showing me that we're not fighting against flesh and blood. Their is some very demonic about all of this. Mom was on hospice over 4.5 years ago; they would have killed her with morphine if I hadn't stepped in and told them that better not ever give her morphine again for a tummy ache. They eventually got rid of that nurse. Mom was out of it for over 3 days; had bouts of diarrhea, cold chills, perspiration, etc. Could someone please email me with any advice. I need to find my mom a doctor that has her interest at heart and cares enough to treat her like she is human. Email: fs.lady@hotmail.com
My Mother passed away 12/11/2013. The hospice nurse finaly did ii. She had been trying for over 2 years. I could not stop it. . .my brother had complete control. Please keep looking for a real doctor who cares. They do still exist.
DeleteI can understand you find these stories hard to believe, however so many people cannot all be wrong! You speak very harshly when you say the family deserves as much blame as the nurse. This is where I feel you show very little compassion. When entering a Hospice situation one would likely be a layperson and could not be expected to fully understand the scope of what is happening. Before my Mother went into the Hospice Care Facility for assessment, I did not know anything about "palliative care", the "dying process", etc. So please to not condescend or take for granted the accounts recorded here to be untrue or without merit. Remember, there is always bad wherever there is good. Evil lurks even where righteousness rests. Hospice care is discreet. They do not come out saying “By the way we are going to place your precious loved one in a drug induced coma, and then they will lay in their death bed for how ever long it takes, groping for air, mouth dry with thirst, moaning with every breath they take, they won’t be able to talk to you, they won’t be able to hold your hand, they will just lie there dying while you watch!” NO! Hospice is discreet. “We will make her comfortable”. All the while you are thinking pain management, not sedated drug induced death! It happens so quickly and without consent that at first you are not even aware of what they are doing. After a couple of days, you notice something is wrong. You question the Nurses who are not forthright with information. Finally you insist they tell you what medication they are giving your loved one. The Nurse says “Give it 24 hours and see if she stabilizes before you make a judgment.” You wait but there is no change only a worsening of the coma-like condition. You ask the Doctor to withdrawal sedative medication and he refuses, saying “You will only prolong her suffering.” By now the team players (family) are divided. Some players are still ignorant to what Hospice is really doing, and some players are beginning to see the truth. Discussions ensue between the players. Finally your precious loved one succumbs to lethal injections and dies. This was not a peaceful death. I did not take my precious Mother to Hospice for them to kill her. Now, you can say we are all crazy but the truth is the truth! God knows the truth and so do I. I am not saying all Hospices are bad or that all people who work with Hospice are evil. However, blaming the family for the misconduct of Hospice is truly pure ignorance. Only after persistence did I find out the medications being used were Morphine, Haldol, and Ativan. By the time I realized what was happening, my Mother was in a drug induced coma and unable to voice her objection! Did I mention that this all took only a handful of days to accomplish. I held legal authority to make decisions for my Mother, and I was refused by the Doctor on staff. If this does not break the law, I do not know what does. To add salt to the wound, the County Medical Examiner told us that they could not perform an autopsy because it was “Out of their jurisdiction.” I find that quite ironic. By the way, you mention consent.. There was never any Informed Consent regarding Palliative Sedation given to Hospice and never any discussions about the treatment plan, the alternatives, or the risks. This violates the Florida Constitution Civil Rights legislation outlined in Statue 765.101 and 765.1103! Palliative Sedation without Explicit Informed Consent violates Civil Rights!

DeleteWell why won't the attorneys touch it-are you suing or found one that will help? I have tried but to no avail so far. I too am in FL.
Deletemarie, I have not found an Attorney to help. My Mother's Estate Attorney told me that Tort Laws protect the Doctors and that because my Mother was terminal there is no wrongful death.... I find that there is very little support for this type of crime.. I have been looking for an Attorney in Florida who handles Hospice cases but also have had no luck as of yet.. I have been concentrating more on the legislative part and I have been speaking with Margaret Dore founder of "Choice is an Illusion" organization (www.choiceillusion.org) who is currently involved in legislation regarding Assistant Suicide specifically in Montana... anyway it seems the ball just keeps on bouncing.. I hope that Senators and Lawyers across this great land and especially in Florida will open their eyes and ears to this issue and realize that there has to be legislation enacted to protect the most vulnerable among us.. our precious parents, brothers and sisters who at the worst possible time in their lives are becoming victims of abuse, so completely disrespected and demoralized... Death with Dignity, this is so far from the truth... there was no dignity in dying this way.. another problem is that Hospice falls under a "safe haven" able to administer "palliative care" without prejudice or injustice... so in other words they can not be held accountable or liable for "overdosing" a patient with Morphine.. even with proof...Hospice is protected by Law and also they are so intertwined within our community and co-partners with huge entities like the local hospitals, businesses, etc and many people still see them as the "Comforters" and think they can do no wrong... this makes it almost impossible to penetrate the "Walls of Jericho" that surround Hospice... but remember what happened to the "Walls of Jericho"... by faith the "Walls of Jericho" fell as they walked around the walls for seven days... so my point is let's keep talking about it and pushing forward for justice.... Euthanasia is very real.. and I believe it happens more often than I would like to think... what is so horrible to me is that "Sedation to Coma" leading to the death of the patient can be done without consent for such an aggressive treatment... I only wish I had known about End-of Life issues before placing my Mother into the Hospice Care Facility because I would not have put her into their care...
DeleteI agree completely. The family members are under a tremendous amount of pressure, and relying on the hospice nurse's ethics and knowledge. The one time my mother was coherent enough to talk to me after hospice got hold of her, she begged me for water and begged me to make them stop making her feel so bad. Then they came in with another shot of morphine to shut her up. That was the last thing she ever said to me. What is wrong with you people? Hospice was started as a well-intentioned program. Now it is just a money pit. Shame on you, hospice nurse, for blaming the family members when you and other hospice employees are paid to conduct yourselves with compassion.
ReplyDeleteDitto again..
DeleteThe hospice nurse's comment was cruel. My experience with the atmosphere around hospice is that they know they've become a sacred cow. No one bothers going after them when they kill people. Well, nurse, payday's coming. Someday you may end up with a loved one getting put down like a horse with a broken leg. Or it may happen to you.
DeleteOh my. I am stunned by some of these comments. You should know that the family holds the absolute power when it comes to hospice. If you are the decision maker, all you need to do is say no. If you are not the decision maker then your real anger should be focused on the decision maker and not the hospice. On the flip side of all of this are the families that would rather watch their loved ones suffer than give them something for pain or the ones that feed them and give them fluids even when it is causing them to swell and making it more difficult for them to breathe. Or the ones that want to send them to the hospital to be hooked to machines until their bodies begin to rot because they are technically already dead.
DeleteI am sick to my stomach. An ambulance took my father to hospice and he died within 2 hrs. The day before we all ate breakfast together at home and my dad was marveling at how delicious the french toast my sister made tasted. Now he is gone almost 3 mos. and our family is in disbelief, and shambles. So much so that we can't even discuss it.

ReplyDeleteAll totally true. My mother took care of my grandmother in her home (they lived together) and when she needed help with bathing and getting her up and into her wheelchair in the morning, hospice was enlisted and came in the morning each weekday. Everything was fine for 6 months which is normally the time allotted for Medicare topaz for hospice. She was doing well, and they continued hospice care after the 6 month mark. Not long after this, the nurse brought morphine in and told my mom she was giving it to my grandmother for pain. My grandmother was not in any pain. She was fine, just old (no cancer or other painful conditions). My mother told them she was NOT to be given any morphine as she knew what they were trying to do. They tried it another time when my mother came to visit me for a week and she was in the care of another trusted caretaker hired by my mom who was a friend. My mother instructed the caretaker to flush it down the toilet. My grandmother started to get more frequent uti's which left her quite sick until the doctor would call in Keflex for her, then should would be fine. Eventually, hospice blocked her from getting the antibiotic she needed, no phonecallls were ever returned by the doctor and very unexpectedly she went into toxic shock, ended up in the hospital where of course they hastened her death with the coma inducing drugs. The doctor never even came in when she died to face my mother. It was terrible. We will NEVER EVER trust the care of a loved one to hospice again. They are wolves in sheep's clothing. This hospice care served the Port Charlotte, Florida area.
ReplyDeleteYour poor grandmother. I feel like crying over all these stories. Because I know they're true; people don't make this stuff up. It would be too painful! We want to think we did everything for our loved ones and to have them disposed of by hospices that do not value human life is infuriating and painful. I am so sorry about your loss!
DeleteWendy, if you or any other commenters here would care to share their experience, please reach out to me. I'm a reporter investigating hospice fraud and abuse. ben.hallman@huffingtonpost.com
DeleteFlorida is the number 1 state for Medicare fraud. Not all states behave in this manner.
DeleteYOu know and they know that the law is on their side. In my case my sibling had pow over her-my mom would have been out of there in a heartbeat if I were in charge. But that still doesn't excuse that this type of treachery should occur.
ReplyDeleteAgain you had longer than my mom had-once she was in the hospice facility in zephyr hils- she was dead the third day (against her will)One of my sisters informe me that the nurse told her that was the the time limit for patients-they wouldn't allow me to be there. I am actuall intimiodated by them- they have power I do not understand- - I don't know who's behind it all- I have an inkling but I am still in the dark.I just know that I do not want them anywhere around me- thEy make nursing homes look like heaven.

ReplyDeleteThis horrible thing happened to my father in 2010. Chased down constantly by HOSPICE via his health insurance with their "wonderful" offerings, all lies. Guess they decided that 93 was too old and insurance co. didn't want to take any risks of having to pay $$ out for an old guy. The worst thing is that HOSPICE DEBILITATED him first with their drugs (he was on none at all - didn't need them), and although he fought for 6 weeks (that's how strong he was), he passed away. My sister and I paid for a chemical autopsy to be done afterward, and sure enough, LETHAL DOSES of meds!! HOSPICE DOCTOR JURKREGGI made some bucks off this. His job was to make my dad "terminal" first. My dad was NOT TERMINAL and was in NO PAIN, but they created that. Please beware...because HOSPICE is being used as a TOOL now...not what it used to be. And what more clever tool than this? Always respected in the past, but no longer...GREED speaks louder than integrity. HOSPICE will SUCK YOU IN and CHASE YOU DOWN until they get you into their abyss. Sound familiar? Somewhat like Hitler's antics? History repeating itself? Oh, you bet!! Please take care of your elderly loved one...this is not science fiction!

ReplyDeleteSuncoast Hospice euthanized by mother who still had a desire and strength to live. Day 2 they start talking about giving a little morphine to help her lungs and then they shut down her oxygen
after the previous day her oxygen reading was 99 percent. These
People are the devil in disguise! Why can't anyone do something to shut them down? Now are family lives with guilt because we
trusted them with her care. Don't know how we can ever forgive ourselves.
I am so glad I found this blog!!! I watched as Hospice did the same to my Dad. He was not in pain, but they gave him Morphine--"to make him comfortable"--they seem to always tell you, "72 hours until death"--how do they know this precise timing if they aren't drugging them to death. I watched as they gave him higher and higher doses--even though he was already in their medically induced coma. My Dad lived exactly 74 hours!!! No food. No meds. No water. No one believes me when I speak against Hospice--no one!!!!It's just all so much easier and convenient for the family--death is not pretty--so Hospice makes it look pretty and the family is relieved. I HATE IT!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI love hospice. I'm a Director of Operations for a major hospice company. Please know that hospice has great people doing great things for people. They are usually providing the end-of-life care that the patient wants or would have wanted if they could communicate. Please remember, when you sign up for hospice, the patient (or representative) signs a consent that they CHOOSE to seek comfort care only and not aggressive treatment. If that's not your choice... please don't sign. Also remember, the patient (or representative)has the right to revoke the hospice benefit and seek aggressive treatment AT ANY TIME. It's all about the patient's choice. I can only conclude that some of you were not properly educated on that choice at the time of admission OR disagree with the patient or legal representative's choice. Please let me know if I can answer any questions for any of you.
ReplyDeleteWhat an ignorant comment. I really doubt you are what you say. Even a true hospice director would have to admit there are horrible hospices out there, along with rotten nurses and uncaring doctors. Once again, I hear a "health professional" blaming the families for the tragic deaths caused by rotten hospices. You would be the last person I'd ask for information regarding hospice.
DeleteAre there some bad hospices? Sure. But that is not my experience for the vast majority of hospice operations. And I am blaming hospice professionals for many of these experiences. They are a direct result of being poorly educated on what hospice is, what it isn't, and what the patient's/family's rights are.
DeleteI have had experience with hospice. For my Husband it was a blessing. He had a brain tumor. For my 93 year old Mother it was brutal. She was convinced she was "dying". We all are aren't we? If she had a head ache they gaver her morphine. If she had a stomach ache, they gaver her morphine. If her back hurt, they gaver her morphine. If she was constipated they gave her morphine. If it was a bad day, they wanted to giver her morphine. THEY WERE MONSTERS. My mother was a cardiac patient.
DeleteI believe your every word. My mother had my senile father responsible for her care, and she wasn't dying until he called Hospice in. They loved their morphine and ativan, and within two weeks, she was gone
DeleteThere was no time! I do have POA, I did tell them to stop the drug! I told them they were killing my mother, stop the drug. What I got was other nursing staff saying there was an order on file. I told them to stop the poison, I told them my mother could not have morphine, it was in her file, Possibly because she was allergic to it. I even threatened to get an attorney to make them honor my POA. They used my sister against me, told her my mother was in pain and in her end stage and she would not ever wake up. My mother was awake and asking for food & diet pop just 15 hours earlier. Where did they come up with she would not ever wake up again? They denied her any food or water or an IV drip, they said she would have to ask for it, yet at this point she was in a coma. Unable to ask for pain meds, yet they insisted to keep pumping the morphine in her. Within about 52 hours my family was in pieces and my mother died.
DeleteMy sons father had hospice care. He was on a morphine drip. Can anyone take him off or put him back on the machine or is it hospice that do that?
DeleteMy sons father had hospice care. He was on a morphine drip. Can anyone take him off or put him back on the machine or is it hospice that do that?
DeleteUnknown, i am a hospice nurse in Ohio. I can't speak for everywhere but it is not legal for someone other than a medical professional to work with IVs of any type.
DeleteI simply want to counter some of these remarks that all hospices are simply out to get rid of the frail and infirm. That's just simply wrong. When my time comes, I'd much rather be in the comfort of my home surrounded by my love ones that having my chest beat on in the hospital. That's not dignified or natural. However, that's my choice. That may not be everyone's choice. I'm simply pointing out that hospice is a choice and even while on hospice it remains a choice that can be revoked.
ReplyDeleteCan you tell me any option I have now since my mother did not pass butgot better and hospice is dropping her in less than 2 weeks? She is on such high amounts of narcotics now, no doctor will touch her. She cant just be taken off of 200mcg fentanyl, she Will pass then. What do I do? They got her on thisbut will not stay around to ween her off?? She is bedridden and cannot go doctor shopping in less than 2 weeks. Where do I go. What dl I do now??
DeleteHospice cared for my grandfather and wouldnt swab his mouth or anything and i kicked the nurse out calling her some filthy names which i am not sorry for at all, i was in EMS at the time and would not put up with that, grandma passed night before last and she was in a week but her cancer was very aggressive and sudden, i dont blame Hospice, I blame the doctors and hospitals that didn't see the cancer and kept sending her away for infections, not one of the doctors spoke good English and didn't see the mass in her lung and liver, i was not POA but i was lucky and the nurses new i would physically eject them if they didnt care for grandma properly, would probably have went to jail but dont care, if it came to that i would have put the nurse in the hospital for a long time,,, sorry im still mad and greiving
ReplyDeleteJason, that is exactly what you should have done. You were overseeing her care and made everyone do what they were supposed to do. Do one is forced to have hospice care but when they choose it they have ultimate control
DeleteMy mom passed away 1 month ago. I got hospice involved because I thought it was the best thing to relieve any pain she might have been experiencing. She wasn't actually dying from anything...was in for pneumonia...got better but was so fearful of what was happening to her (nobody knew why she was so afraid) that she couldn't stop from crying out, repeating herself and repeating what we would say to her. She was clearly in an inscribe amount of mental pain.
ReplyDeleteThis had been going on for weeks previous to the hospital visit. Everyone involved was baffled. Doctors were talking about mini strokes and another possible undetected larger one in recent times. People were also talking a lot about her lacking quality of life... I made the decision that she needed some serious help and thought Hospice was an obvious choice. When we got the Hospice involved she dyed within a week ..I ask myself every day if we did the right thing but I know that she was in a terrible, untreatable state. All the doctors and hospice could do was keep her medicated to keep her calm her. When she wasn't medicated, she was literally jumping out of her skin. Did they kill her..maybe..did we have any alternative..I'm not quite sure.
My Mom is hanging on by a thread between the hospital and hospice they almost succeeded to finish her off , my mom did not want to die ,not by any means , She was tricked and bullied into hospice . how was she tricked let me tell you , On 5/13/13 she was admitted to the Trinity Med Center (whoops was I supposed to say the name?)with aspirated pneumonia she also had a droop to her mouth but no one addressed that. She seemed to be making progress , I had left on the 16th and by the 18th they down graded her to icu , she fought her way back not before she endued Bi PAP ,Swallow test which she failed on Sunday 26th(so we were told ) On the twenty eight she was upgraded to p cu I thought she was doing OK (The hospital tried to put the ventilator on her , she refused good thing ) Maggie a case manager went behind her three daughters backs and had her discharged. on the twenty eight My younger sister gets a call from a Hospice Recruit saying my mom was going to sign papers My Mother would NEVER SIGN to HOSPICE come to found out she had NO CHOICE but to sign here is what she was told . ( Mom had not ate or drank in 5 days and the BI PAP dries your mouth out plus the day before they stated giving her Diluled and Haldol for persuasion) Marjorie if you want something to drink or eat the only way is to go to hospice they will feed you . You cannot go to the nursing home because we have a NO food or drink order on you . You cannot go to your daughters she could be arrested for elderly neglect and finally you can not stay here . If you try to stay here you will be responsible for all expenses from here on in . MY Mother signed and she did for a drink of water, Under No circumstances my Mom would sign her life away , she had to be so thirsty , My Mothers quote" I want to eat ",She was taken to Hospice on the 29th once there they bought her a last meal she had two glass of water and a variety of food , we were pleased saying this isn't to bad , My sisters left her she was alert and in good spirts . The next day my sister came in and my mom was in a coma like state . We had a gut feeling something wasn't right, wanted her out , Hospice told us that the family would be responsible for transport to a hospital and if the hospital did not a admit her what would you do than ,and on top of everything else she is an amputee, Her regular doctor was out of the country so will reluctantly did not move her they made us feel fearful. The next days that follow played out like a horror film watching helpless while they MURDER MY MOTHER on the sevth day which is today we got a miricle I don't know exactly what happen but her docter came back they wrote a direct admit and my Mom was out out of there reach and in the hands of good Doctors tiring to save her right now they had told my sister they did not know how she was still alive , the morphine 20mg every god knows when and ativan 1.0 mg same dose destroyed her kidneys and she may not make it . I am traumatized for the rest of my life and I can not believe the similar stories, it is just so sad and very scary to think there is legal murders in this country . SHAME ON YOU

DeleteI know all these comments are TRUE and the ones that don't think so are the killers that work for hospice ! Like the ones in Hickory,N.C. The death cert. said my mom died of one thing but what they tell us is another! I was told if she came there they would help her . And they did ! They helped her die fast so she would be out of the way ,just like the rest of the sick. Just because they are sick it does not give them the right to make them die sooner then their time!
ReplyDeleteI witnessed this first hand with my brother-in-law. He came home from the hospital talking and laughing. The hospital talked the family into hospice. Within 1 week he was dead because they pumped him full of morphine every half hour. Now here is the thing, hospice can only continue if people use them. First, we have to get the word out. Share this blog with everyone you know, on facebook, twitter or any other public social network you belong to.
ReplyDelete2nd, does anyone have any ideas on how to set up an alternative network to hospice. We would need to get insurance coverage and medicare coverage. We need nurses, nurses aides and a curative philosophy with caring, compassionate people. It isn't enough to complain, we need to fix it.
I too am concerned. My mom went in to the hospital with dehydration and anemia from a hernia they say was inoperable. She went in talking and stable. Within a week she was in fluid overload with a hospice consult. She became comatose immediately after starting the Morphine drip and Ativan. She died within 2 day. Everything I suggested to fix the problem was beat down with reasons why not. She had new onset of pleural effusion which as a respiratory therapist I know can be drained via thoracentesis. Doctor said, "and risk puncturing a lung." Suggested TPN until she could get more strength to get an opinion from an expert in Cleveland. Doctor said, "then I would have to worry about line infection." They gave her 3 days and were ready to kick her out of the hospital either to Hospice, home health or nursing home. They gave her insulin to fix a potassium level problem and it was all down hill from that point. They sent her down for a test without monitoring her glucose levels. Thank God my daughter found her or she would have died there. I feel they were covering up a mistake so they sent in Hospice. Of course they wouldn't tell you that...
ReplyDeleteLemme tell you what. I am mad as hell and I'm not going to take it anymore. My beloved husband was murdered by Odyssey Hospice employees in Tucson, AZ. He died February 22, 2013 and I have been paralyzed with grief for the last six months. My husband's story is exactly the same as all the other victim's stories. Targeted for euthanasia, admitted to hospice under questionable circumstances, terminally sedated without informed consent while food and water was withheld. Admitted awake and alert without evidence of anxiety or intractable pain Dead within a matter of days. I obtained my husband's medical records, ALL OF HIS MEDICAL RECORDS and what I found therein made me physically ill. There is absolutely no doubt as to the horrific abuses he suffered at the hands of Odyssey personel who lied through their teeth about what they knew they were doing in killing him. Morphine, ativan, haldol...same, same, same. I had been so overwhelmingly grief stricken and burdened by this huge sense of guilt that I didn't save him that I considered taking my own life. I blamed myself for not knowing, not acting, not believing what I witnessed with my very own eyes. In the six months since my husband died I have slowly but surely put all the pieces together by cross referencing the records (1,000 plus pages) researching the experiences of other victims and their families, speaking to law enforcement and attorneys and here's the bottom line. Law enforcement in Tucson professes sympathy but says without an autopsy prosecution is not an option. The attorney I saw said he too, was sympathetic but all things considered my husband's life did not have enough value to justify pursuing a claim for medical malpractice or wrongful death. How much less value then, does my own life have when I was impotent in saving a vulnerable human from the ghouls who were killing him before my very eyes? Lemme tell you what. I'm not going to take it anymore.
ReplyDeleteIf no one is going to help me then I'll do what I can by myself. I have gone to my local print shop a had a banner made that reads "My husband was EUTHANISED at Odyssey Hospice. Euthanasia is Murder!" and then his name, date of birth and date of death. I get up early and take my sign to areas of heavy vehicle and pedestrian traffic and I stand with my sign, oftentimes crying, always broken and yet very, very determined to alert others to the truth. It is a painful process but with each day I go out with my banner I gain a little more strength. It has empowered me to some degree and I am finally beginning to forgive myself for doing nothing to help my husband as hospice employees administered his death one dose at a time. I have composed letters to Office of the Inspector General for my region as well as letters to state agencies that govern doctors, nurses and other employees related to the health care professions. I have returned to the hospice several times to speak to the nurses that killed my husband, questioning them about this and that. Makes them squirm. They can't look me in the eye. I am their conscience and they know it. Tough luck. They had no right. I am going to alert my local news agencies to the silent holocaust occurring in our communities and I encourage all of you to do the same. It is too late for my beloved husband and it almost too late for me. The only reason I didn't kill myself in these months since my husband's death is because there would then be no one to protect my precious mother and mother in law when their time comes. They need me and I need them and I know the truth. I'm not going to take it anymore. I am just one person and my voice is small but I believe eventually someone with the ability to stop these abuses will hear me and if no one does, at least I've done my best. I am sorry for each and every one of your losses. I believe every word you've said because the same thing happened here. Let us make a difference in the lives of people that have no voice and let us honor our loved ones as well as all the victims past, present and future. They need us to tell our stories. It matters and so do you. Be strong and be well. TAKE UP THE TORCH OF LIFE. DEFEND HUMAN LIFE FROM EUTHANASIA.
DeleteI am going through the same thing. My husband died July 5th 2015. I blame myself every day by putting him in Hospice. He was dead in 3 days. I will never use Hospice again. The hospital recommend it and said he would be able to come back home but the nurses never gave him a chance.
DeleteYes Amy and everyone else whom has blogged here..I hear you and I have witnessed myself the devestation hospice care has created in my own life..watched as my sister in law who was fifty died while under hospice care..I was devastated, and it left such a lasting impression in my mind to never give permission for my own life to be put in hospice..Once you give that permission, you have no legal recourse to change your mind.Hospice will tell you that these people are comfortable and dying with dignity. It is a lie from the pit of hell.I am only blogging here to remind myself and others that ine day we will stand before God and be judged for our decisions. I extend my deepest sympathy to all who have witnessed knowingly, or unknowingly, the death of friends and family members while under hospice care.People speak up NOW while your voices can still be heard..
ReplyDeleteWe have my mother in law at our home and have for several years. She has cardiovascular disease renal disease and vascular dementia. She is not uncomfortable, she knows everyone, but relies on us for everything except feeding herself. I had spoke to her doctor since I am the main one to care for her and they suggested hospice care. The nurse came out told us all the good things, one being she would qualify for baths.... the last time I bathed her alone I had no idea that her medications would not be covered nor would be given to her at all.. She told my husband, her POA that her job "was to take her to Jesus".. Needless to say we did not opt for Hospice .. I actually have a call in for the support person at the doctors office to see what services she can have outside of Hospice.. If my mother in law does NOT get her medications she will not live more than 2 weeks... I asked if I could continue to pay for her medications as we have always done, I asked if they could do blood/urine tests PRN to make sure her potassium et all were in check. To date I have not had a call back. WHY would someone put an elderly person in HOSPICE when they are not uncomfortable???
ReplyDeleteCornerstone Hospice in Avon Park, Florida doesn't take care of the elderly. They help family members deceive the other family members and take retirees money that's not even suppose to be paid to them. I hope they get caught for their deceiving the public and how they take care of the seniors down in their town. Hope the word gets out about all the hospice places in Florida because they lie to family members.
ReplyDeleteFinding this blog really touched me reading all of your stories. What I wrote was too big to submit here so I started my own blog.
ReplyDeleteIf you are questioning whether to go with hospice or just want to hear of another story with my experience with hospice stop at http://marciasstory47.blogspot.com/
I'm having a hard time dealing with all of this and maybe having people to share my grandma's story with will help.
A week ago tonight I lost my 85 year old string beautiful and confident aunt! She seemed just fine to me and was aware of her surrounding. She mentioned she was not feeling well as she was laying there with her eyes closed. She had no pain whatsoever ! Her doctors without even taking a blood test told family members there is nothing they can do for her. She had a fever episode a few days back and was fighting some dementia issues but was overcoming it all...anyway, hospice showed up at around 4:00 and I left....I got a call at 9:00 that she passed away! They said she had been given the so called "comfort Package" !! I miss her so dearly and am pretty convinced she was out to sleep! This to me is in humane!!!!
ReplyDeleteGod bless her sole and your loved ones! Be ware of what you are told! This seems to be a huge set up! I guess we got the demon nurse not the angel one! R.I.P. My dear Aunt!! So sorry!!!!!

My experience with VITAS Hospice was awful.
ReplyDeleteMy mother had terminal lung cancer along with mild Parkinson's disease. She was in pain, but it was manageable and the chemo was shrinking the tumors. During her last chemo treatment a VITAS representative offered their services at which time she declined. For weeks they left several messages on my cell phone, as if they were trying to recruit her.
My mom was living with me and was able to walk, talk and eat. She went to stay with her sister for a while at which time she signed up with Hospice because they would supply a hospital bad and help with bathing. She signed up with Hospice on Sept. 24th and died Oct.25th of starvation and dehydration.
Just 3 days after she moved to her sister's house and signed up with Hospice I started getting phone calls from my aunt that the nurse said to start making funeral arrangements, she thinks the cancer spread to her bones. I was furious that the nurse took it upon herself to make that diagnosis. I did get my mom to go to her oncologist one more time. The oncologist said her last pet scan was good and don't give up on us just yet. She ordered another pet scan and said if it comes back good you might want to think about continuing treatment, my mother agreed. That was the last time I was able to talk to my mom normally.
Hospice made sure she never made it to the appointment. They gave her a coma inducing cocktail of Methadone, morphine and Dilaudid and told me the reason she cant get out of bed all of the sudden has nothing to do with the drugs, she's just declining. What a coincidence.
So for that month I watched my mom slowly waste away and there was nothing I could do. Anything I suggested, they shot it down and said she doesn't need that. Never a moment of privacy with her either, there was always a nurse sitting right there listening to every word I said. Even after she died they wouldn't leave me alone with her in the room, they sat at the table charting the last of her pills.
The day before she died they called me and said I cant bring my two year old daughter there anymore because she pushed a button on the oxygen machine and I would have to make other arrangements. So now my mom cant visit with her granddaughter on her death bed either. That's what VITAS Hospice calls dying with dignity.
I have several more complaints, but I've already said enough. I'm disgusted.
To all concerned who know or suspect something that is just not right and downright criminal going on under the disguise of Hospice. I am here to remind each of you the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organizational, the overseeing body that works with Medicare and Medicaid for all hospice reimbursement all over the nation was formerly called the EUTHANASIA SOCIETY OF AMERICA! Think about it, they have hijacked a concept that people came to love and trust and are now euthanizing people without prosecution through the misuse of a medically acceptable procedure of sedation with drugs as well as withholding of food and fluids. You know those items on your advance health care directive you stated you did or did not want, and then went on to name a Agent who would understand clearly when you did or did not want them? Well that was designed to get you to feel empowered, what you did not know is hospice would use them towards their core values (euthanasia) and if the agent disagreed, they would make sure somehow it was changed to someone they could work with. You can also thank Compassion & Choices which was formerly the Hemlock Society (another Euthanasia group), they are the legislative organization that introduces and puts on the ballot in every state Bills to pass into law what has been cleverly covered up as Rights and Choices. The Living Will was the first of their objectives, the most recent is Physician Assisted Suicide (PAS), they would like to see this passed in every state because once this is passed legalized euthanasia is just a skip away. The question is how do we stop the Euthanasia Advocates at this point? The Slippery Slope that was talked about is upon us already and you have experienced it. I would suggest all of you read Stealth Euthanasia by Ron Panzer.
ReplyDeleteHelp me stop this. They just killed my Mother.
DeleteYou can't possibly believe this crap?
DeleteHospice is good if your doctor has told you there is nothing left we can do and you have decided that you're ready to go.
ReplyDeleteHospice is not good if you're still functioning and want to continue living, even though you have a terminal disease and know you'll ultimately die from it. They'll recruit you under the disguise that you'll have a better quality of life if you sign up with them. Once they have control they'll take over all of your medications, give you a cocktail to sedate you and tell family members it's "pain management". You'll go from fully functioning to an almost vegetative state within days. You won't be able to get out of bed anymore, you'll develop bed sores, you'll be very disorientated and eventually you'll die from dehydration and starvation under the disguise that it's just the dying process .It happens within a month if not less and by the time family members start questioning it, it's too late. That's been my experience anyway.
Reading these stories is like a punch in the heart. I saw this happening to my Mother. It is too late for her now. How do we stop these liars. My Mother was 93 strong mentally, frail physically, and vulnerable. She signed the papers to stay out of the hospital and my Brother's recommendation. He told me it was palliative care. IT WAS NOT. I have just found out that hospice DOES NOT offer palliative care. They only offered services to assist our loved one to the next "spiritual realm". The nurse was a monster pretending to be a comforting angel.
DeleteThe point is, if your loved one hasn't said they're ready to give up yet then don't let hospice drag them in or intimidate you. Within a blink of an eye it's going to be too late and you have to live with the feelings of anger and guilt forever.
ReplyDeleteThe only thing WORSE, is when a family member profits immensly from this hastened death. You, the truly concerned (but not greedy) sibling not only get shut out of the decisions, Hospice will NOT discuss the case with no one with POA, and frequently override even that. By the time the "truly concerned" relative gets wind of WTH is REALLY going on here, your loved one is so far to gone, nothing can be done in time, and oh they also offer FREE CREMATION. I was brow beat by family who had excluded me from any "participation" per Hospice orders (not my Dad's) that I wished I had never signed that, as he was gone then. Only later did I realize they tricked me into removing the evidence of their crime. They clearly take advantage of the distraught, with lies, deception and Nazi like agendas and tactics.
ReplyDeleteI meant that Hospice will NOT discuss this case with NO one unless they have POA, and frequently overide even them.
ReplyDeleteThe two members of the family that helped hasten his death, to profit themselves, included me when it was time to sign for cremation. What was I to do, there wasn't even time to involve authorities, the police, Elder Care Protections, nothing. Brothers POA made him GOD, and he ABUSED my father, got him to change his will, made him suffer and discarded him like a candy wrapper. In the end he broke my Dad's heart, when Dad realized, but could do nothing about the "beloved son" he trusted cheating him out of all he owned and his will to live. Sis and I are so broken by this OUTRAGE that we struggle to even focus and go on with our lives.
ReplyDeleteThe travesty is that these "relatives" often prohibit OTHER family members from BEING involved. Hospice almost REQUIRES this as they indoctrine your relative what to look out for (ie anyone that might let common sense prevail) so they can easily say you are "one of those" here for greed only and who want to make the loved one suffer. It is akin to the brainwash used to get family and others to turn in the Jews. It can happen here, make NO mistake. The real victims are the elderly, second all amicible family relations or support, third the concept of free will, and fourth the KILL for money Hospices that are interested ONLY in QUANITY of patients, not quality of anything else.
ReplyDeletelast line meant to convey the few very few good Hospices "volunteer" are the victims of these killing machine organizations.
ReplyDeleteEven when there is nothing to gain they still manage to turn family members against each other. Like in the case with my mom.
ReplyDeleteShe didn't have anything to leave anyone, she lived off her social security. But my aunt saw them as angels and anytime I would say something against it, it would cause friction between us. Eventually I flipped my lid one night (something I've never done in my life) and started screaming "you're killing my mom" but by then it was too late. I had to call my aunt the next day and apologize just to be able to go back there and see my mom. 2 days later she died.
It was just such an awful experience, had I known it was going to be like that I wouldn't have returned their numerous messages on my cell phone to recruit her.
After the nurse took control of her medications and discontinued her Vicoden in replace of methodone my mom kept asking for her pills that she was used to taking. My aunt said that the nurse said they'll trick her and replace the pills with Tylenol. When my aunt asked if that would harm her liver the nurse said what does it matter now.
ReplyDeleteI don't have any proof of this happening, but my aunt told me this after she passed away as if it were no big deal.
I've tried to let this go, but for once in my life I can't seem to do it.
Oh yes, my mother was on hospice in Texas for 5 years.
ReplyDeleteThe only reason she lived that long, was because I was in their side the whole time. What are you giving her how much you giving her and why. If I did not see the necesity of it. I told them no. I was the daughter that spent a few hours every day at the nursing home. I did not just run in and out a few days a week. I stayed and observed everything. Even how other patients were treated. Family members seem to think they have no control. But, really you do. You ask those question and find answers. If you feel you are not being told the truth, then ask again on another shift. You don't have to be obnoxious, just very demanding for answers and that you have the right to say no. This even applies to before hospice. Be there, ask questions, and ask until you get the right answers. Pay attention to how other residents are treated. I was not so quick to give up.
The way to stop what this blog site is confirming is to : Make a determination on an individual basis to do all you can to expose this crime. You can do this by speaking out such as you did on this blog. However, it will need to be done on sites where people need information not confirmation. I have used Yelp to give my opinion of hospice involvement in my own mothers death just in the event someone was wanting to compare services before signing on. I have contacted agencies that are pro-life and maintain contact for testimony if needed to fight bills the pro-euthanasia groups propose in the States. Some groups you might want to check out ,and they all have websites, are: Choice is an illusion, Humanlifealliance (HLA) they have great publications already printed you can order for little cost and pass them out to educate, Prolifehealthcare and how to be a patient advocate, Get involved to help educate the public through your place of worship, MD offices, hospitals. There are good hospice providers out there who truly want to provide the care Hospice was meant to give but first it must be made known to the National Hospice and Palliative Care Organization and compassion & choices that we the public who seek a different kind of care at end of life will not stand for what they define as acceptable. Fight back! Educate, get involved at your local legislative levels and community levels, tell your own doctors when you go for a health care visit your own expectation of end of life care, promote pro-life hospice organizations, these promote sanctity of life vs. dignity in death. Finally, we must find a way to produce transparency and hold hospice accountable when it acts on killing instead of caring. Personally, I would suggest to anyone I knew signing up for hospice to install a hidden video and recording device to catch them in the act of killing or to serve as a deterrent to such. Keep fighting back! You cannot bring your loved one back but if we all begin working together instead of suffering alone we can stop the second coming of the death camps!
ReplyDeleteI will shout it from the rooftops till the day I see my Mom again !!!! AMEN
DeleteLord, when I was infant, you partner with My parents in loving and caring for me. My parent is now elderly and infirmed and I ask that you partner with me in giving her the same tender loving care.
ReplyDeleteGive me the strength to be fully present for my mother and lovingly tend to her needs and the wisdom to take time out to tend to my physical, emotional and
spiritual needs as I care for her.
Amen.
I don't know why people allow this to happen to their loves
ReplyDeleteTo the Hospice physician,nurses ,worker's.
ReplyDeleteHow do you sleep at night is it with the paycheck you coddle under your pillow from the money you get poisoning our loved ones to death against there will ?
COMFORT CARE ?? DYING WITH DIGNITY??

Disorientation, delusions.
Serious side effects for older adults, with side effects worsened when used with many other medications
SOUNDS LIKE A PEACEFUL DEATH ???????????? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Physicians, nurses and hospice workers all have an obligation By LAW to do whatever they can to make patients feel comfortable and safe . Yet fail to uphold even minimal compliance with the most basic of health care standards .
It is a flagrant violation of human rights and patient's rights !!!!!
Palliative is a term that is often used in hospice-related brochures and titles. Few ever consider the meaning of the word. As shown in the dictionary definitions , palliative is a way to excuse an act that is obviously immoral. It specifies that there is never an attempt at curing, only at concealment of activities. It is a word that describes intentional deception concerning stimulating death.
So coddle that paycheck you get for working in a DEATH CULT YOU SOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
allow? the ones allowing this are the law enforcement agencies who refuse to prosecute or even investigate these crimes. their idea of investigation is to let center for medicare, medicaid (CMS) look for wrongful action and, cms looks only for evidence of the individual living too long; that is, one not dead within 6 mos or less as defined by the admitting criteria for the terminal diagnosis. so you can see the fox is watching the hen house, to be dead in 6 mos or less is what is supposed to happen. allow, has a lot of slippery slopes. the big allow is when the concept of hospice was hijacked by the euthanasia advocates and are allowed to "deceptively market" there services for a corporate gain at the tax payer expense, cleverly hidden under health care. ever wonder why so many hospice patients are cremated? destroy the evidence. so you can see, hospice without some kind of serious reform and oversight is the perfect crime environment and not a safe place for anyone except those who want to be dead. the euthanasia advocates are now the "bully" on the block and legislatively they need to be stopped. however, right now they are only bullying those seen by society as not being a life of value anyway. allow,begins with our own values of what life is. like i have said before, to stop a injustice we must speak out and learn from our experience. demand laws that protect those at highest risk for danger. death is not the enemy here the euthanasia advocates who call themselves hospice are. beware hospice!
ReplyDeleteMy mother died on July 11, 2014 at 8:20pm. She was under public guardian. OPG took her from me unlawfully and brutally. My mother probably lived too long, she was 91. The nursing facility accused me in force-feeding and put me aside, so they could stop feeding my mother and she finally dies. I was fighting for my mother going to the Senators, Governor, writing to Congressmen. There were four hearings in the court. NOTHING helped, on the opposite. Each time I fight, each time the facility poisons my mother with medications and she suffers. On July 11, 2014 another hearing was scheduled by the judge. On July 10 all of a sudden, my mother started to breathe with husky sounds. She was pronounced “actively dying.” She was on Hospice against our family will. The hearing (I was hoping to take my mother home) was cancelled. I believe something was injected in her throat at night on July 10 that started the process of accumulating of mucus in the throat. I was asking to take her to the Hospital, but they continue repeating that it is “natural process of dying, everybody goes through it.” They simply were suffocating her. Finally, they performed sucking of mucus from the throat, my mother chocked and died. The Sucking was when I was not with her; I didn’t see what had happened. I came back from my break just at the last moment of her life. If somebody knows what they do to, what they inject into the throat to start this “natural dying process,” please post it. I think everybody needs to know all the killing tricks this “death industry” does to people.
ReplyDeleteMy advice to anyone who finds this message.
Delete1. Ask your doctors questions. Do not be afraid to ask any question that comes to mind. As ridiculous as you may think it sounds, ask your question.
2. Be proactive with everything. Do not let the doctors our nurses persuade you to decide on something that does not feel right. Majority of the time its as clear as day just like with everything else that comes up in life. If not take the time to decide do not let them rush you.
3.Hospice might be the right route for some people, but they are not for everyone and if you truly believe that you are NOT at that point yet or that your loved one is not at that point yet. Please do not let anyone talk you into something you don't feel is right. You'll live with the regret for the rest of your life if you do.
4.They will talk down to you and they will make it seem like all hope is lost. You know your situation they know just the lining of your situation. No one with a medical title will help you decide what is right. They will answer as it benefits their own agenda and base your situation as a general situation. They cannot invest emotions or personal opinions in your life. In most cases your family is your biggest asset. Or your trusted one.
5.Hospice is exactly the same as it was years and years ago. They will tell you that they are nothing like they were before. That they are not about death. That they are about helping you and your loved one reach your goals and in the worst case scenario to help you or your loved one be comfortable and die with dignity. When in most cases if you do your research which I highly suggest you do before making ANY decision. In most cases your story will end just like my grandma's. Our country does not have a legal way to commit suicide per say, but going through what I have within those short days with hospice I would beg to differ. Agendas between Medicare and Hospice facilities are kept so quiet that it makes it hard to question whats really going on behind closed doors.
The one thing I would truly push is to make sure you please doo not rush any decisions if at all possible take as much time as you need before you decide anything.. I hope this helps you for I wish I would have found support sooner.
Justice, I know what you are talking about. Did they do the Speech Test or some other procedure with the throat on your mother? That is when they have “legal” access to epiglottis and the throat. After this procedure the “whole is open” and a person is ready to die “from heart or lung failure” at any time. Pour some water into the throat during sleep and that is it. Your mother was breathing through water in her throat. If not enough, they can add some more.
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I have been together for about five years. last month we got into an argument because i caught him cheating, i was heartbroken and i used to love him with all my heart, I was about to leave and asked him what’s on his agenda and he just ignored me. I got mad and cursed him out and left. He said that I am jealous and insecure which is a recurring theme in our arguments. i tried everything to repair our relationship but nothing came alright, luckily enough i was browsing on the internet and i saw testimony of clients who talked about Mr Robinson buckler and also i saw his email address robinsonbuckler@yahoo.com, i thought may be its also one of the scamming spell caster, but my heart was restless until i contacted him and i used his spell and it worked so nice, his spell made my husband to take me back as his wife, it also made my husband to love me more, anyone who want his or her lover back should contact robinsonbuckler or call him +19715126745 him
DeleteYou are right, Martin. When I came in the morning on July 10, my mother was still breathing. Two CNAs were in the room. “We did mouth wash for your mother,” they said. I noticed a bottle with greenish mouthwash liquid on the shelf almost half empty. At this point I didn’t know yet that my mother couldn’t swallow anymore. It came later to me that they simply put this liquid into her throat in order to suffocate her and “help” her to die. “Her breathing pattern has changed drastically since morning,” the SNAs said. Now I know why.
DeleteI have recently had a horror story of my own. Which has led me to start an awareness group to inform people about what hospice is doing. We could use all the support we can get. Please take a few minutes to check out our site (even though it is not done and very new) and leave a comment or better yet, tell us your story and your thoughts. Let's fight this together!! www.youchoose2@wix.com/choose
ReplyDeleteThat is right - it is our loved one, but RN if you are not told what is being done and you are not allowed to view the chart, and even despite having POA over his medical care - my father was murdered by hospice nurses and the doctor that we were assigned in the town in which we live. I know that they were slowly poisoning my father to his death - it lasted a full 6 weeks and I find it ironic that after a meeting with hospice and nursing home staff about issues we had with staff and hospice people - my father quickly went down hill and died 1 week later. He had a lot of the side effects another poster mentioned, he had opiod-induced hyperalgesia, they were using the drug to give him the sensation of having his breathing suppressed despite he would be sleeping and looked and appeared "comfortable", he was not able to cough any of his congestion up, his edema in his legs and arms got worse, he had severe weight loss and partially due to being nauseated and vomiting if he ate anything, was only given small amounts of water because they gave the excuse that he might choke, they ordered him a hospital bed in the nursing home and the night before it arrived he was so miserable and getting gradually weaker that he could not hardly stand as well as he had just the day before, and so on! Now when I asked the nurses about what was given to him and when - I am guessing I was lied to because often times they told me they did not give him anything, but he was so drowsy that he could not awake to speak to me. The list is longer about what he was experiencing and how he was acting, but it is my guess they were poisoning him slowly and then that last week they gave him the Ativan and Roxanol more frequently without our knowledge - I truly believe they killed my father right under my nose while they told me lies about what they were doing. It is not palliative care or comfort care - it is called murder and you cannot call it anything else! I have worked in the medical field for over 30 years - I know that how my father went down hill quickly was methodically done and I felt powerless to do anything about it and feel that when I requested a copy of his drug list and when it was given - it was a corrected copy because the DON at the nursing home said we would not want a copy of their drug list (when at the meeting) as it was messy - the sheet I was handed was very neat! You can slap any name on what "hospice" does for loved ones who are severely ill, but you cannot tell me that all hospice facilities and the staff employed by these people are compassionate and wish to see that individual improve - they whole reason for existing - death is their reason they were created and it has become more sinister and evil! My rights and my father's rights were not listened to, they were not upheld, they were ignored and pretty much I was told it could not be done and Hospice ruled with an iron fist. My father was cremated and I know there is no way to prove he was poisoned by the meds he was given, but I am 100% sure it is true!! You were not there RN - you have no right to say it never happens and it is the families fault - I tried hard to check on these people and their so called "comfort" measures, but when you are dealing with liars and deception - how pray tell does one deal with that?? What if there is no one who can even speak for these people - then what - that means it gives the medical staff all the rights to kill these people off? I do not know how any of you who administer these drugs live with yourselves - it is murder plain and simple!

ReplyDeleteSince 2010 they wanted me to bring hospice in. Wish I would of not listen to RN Case Manager telling me hospice would help me. Back in September 2014 I let hospice in and all they told me to do is giving her morphine for the pain when change the bandage on her foot. Morphine made the pain worse,cause vomiting, blood pressure dropped, made it hard for her to drink and eat for my mom. Their solution more morphine and anti vomiting and nausea medication in cover what the morphine was causing.
Disturbing to say the least! I am sick to my stomach reading these painful true stories. We don't want these euthanasia endings for our elderly or frail! This is wrong...plain wrong. I pray to be part of positive changes and not a silent member of an apathetic euthanasia society. 🙏 This subject affects all of humanity and I am glad so many are speaking out and sharing their own experiences.

ReplyDeleteI'm terribly sorry for anyone who has been in a horrible situation with hospice. I am a hospice nurse and I can tell you from experience we do not just cut off their medications and "hasten" their death. Not all hospices are the same. The reason we stop the medications is because the patient is unable to swallow them. If the patient can still swallow, they still receive all of their important medications. And the comment about the IV fluids and dehydration....our goal is comfort. If the IV is just going to back up and cause the extra fluid to pool in their legs, arms, and lungs and end up causing pain or breathing problems why would you want to put someone through that? If it will benefit them, then yes. I have started IVs on hospice patients. Also, I have discharged patients from hospice who have improved. Not everyone is the same!
ReplyDeleteThank you, Ashley. My father in law just passed away yesterday, in a Hospice facility. He was 96. He got a blood infection in the nursing home he lived in, which led to pneumonia. He lost ability to swallow, so most meds were discontinued. He also had a heart attack. I was sad to see him unable to talk to me anymore, but he squeezed my hand. Giving him fluids would have made things worse. He already had edema in his hands, and with fluid in lungs, extra fluids would make things worse. The hospice workers were doing things in his best interest. We knew his body was wearing out. They gave minimal morphine and used a patch to thin mucus. They suctioned his throat when needed, and changed his position to aid in breathing. He himself was a hospice volunteer, visiting shut ins. I am thankful for the care he was given, even though it was very hard to see him decline. Do I have questions? Yes.....but who doesn't second guess decisions when they are so weighty? I'm glad I will see him again in heaven, where all questions will be answered.

This is several posts. It is too long and it all needs to be said: I am going through a horrific experience involving hospice right now. Well not even just hospice, but also a POA that wants her mother dead as well. I am one of five primary care takers for a 65 year old woman with multiple sclerosis (which she has had for 35+ years). She has been quadriplegic for 20+ years. Despite the ms and the paralysis, she has remained a very healthy, very competent, very intelligent woman. She had 24 hour care and through us she ran her household. Paid her bills (and her 35 year old daughters bills- who lived upstairs). She suffers from chronic UTIs from prolonged catheter use. She has been on oral antibiotics non stop for at least 3 years so she is immune to them. Because she is homebound, there are no doctors that will come in to see her. She has a primary care doctor who has not seen her since she was in the hospital two years ago. He is basically there just to call in any prescriptions she needs. The only licensed medical professional she sees is the nurse who comes to check the catheter twice a week. In the two years I have worked there she has never been in any pain that required anything more than ibuprofen. About three weeks ago, she started to act off mentally. Rambling, repeting herself, getting bouts of anger or crying spells. Her mental condition quickly deteriorated into a state of dementia. Sometimes she was non responsive. Some times she acted infantile. Sometimes she seemed normal but would ramble about odd things, etc. From sleeping in her room, I noticed that she probably has sleep apnea. That was from the very little bit she did sleep because for about a month she was struggling with insomnia. The catheter nurse said that her UTI had gotten so bad that combined with the apnea and insomnia, it was causing the dementia. She recommended that my patient be put on iv antibiotics....
ReplyDeleteCont: immediately and she should have a full recovery of the insomnia was managed. Well now that she was suffering from dementia, her daughter, who is poa, stepped in. Although her daughter lives upstairs she has little to no involvement in her mothers care. She comes to see her once a month (to give her her bills to pay) and it usually ends in her screaming at her. So, instead of bringing her mom to the ER to be seen by a doctor, or start antibiotics as the nurse recommended, the poa made the decision to put her in hospice!!!! This is a woman who 3 weeks prior was in great mental and physical health! When hospice came in to take her away, the patient snapped out of it and went back to her normal self - obviously very upset that hospice was there. Her daughter talked to her, and my patient agreed to go to "respite care" for 5 day. If she got better, she came home. If she didn't she went to hospice. Myself and the other care takers were relieved, because we were under the impression that she was going to receive the antibiotics needed and would not be unnecessarily medicated. We could not have been more wrong. She was immediately removed from all meds. No antibiotics were started. She was put on haldol and dilauded---a paralyzed woman with NO pain!!!!!! After her five days of respite- she had not gotten better (of course not. She wasn't getting meds and she was drugged up) she was transferred to general admission hospice this past Monday. Funny it is the same facility and the same exact course of action is being followed. When this first started I began looking into ways to challenge this. This is murder!!! The woman was fine three weeks ago. She gets an infection and that is reason to kill her?!? Even if the dementia isn't being caused by the infection, dementia is not a reason to euthanize someone! I decided to wait out the five days, hopeful that she would be treated and released. I went to see her yesterday and she looked hours away from death. She hadn't been responsive for two days. She hadn't drank anything in two days. Her head was back and he body stiff from the haldol. She had the death rattle. It was too much. I contacted the agency on aging to open an investigation on the POA for neglecting to meet her medical needs. Who knows what she was telling them at hospice! I want to believe that if she told them that she was normal weeks ago and that the nurse said if she got antibiotics she would be fine, that they would have directed her to the hospital- not participated in killing her.
ReplyDeleteCont: Today when I went to see her, her family was in from out of town. I got the opportunity to talk to them. I explained everything as I just had and they were devastated. Her POA of course had told them a different story about how the dr said she was untreatable and recommended hospice etc etc. They challenged her and finally came to the agreement to change the dilauded and haldol to prn. But the POA still would not agree to transfer her so she could get antibiotics. The agency for elder abuse did contact her (very quickly after I called actually. I was impressed) and they are meeting with her tomorrow. Since really all her family can do is beg the POA to treat her, if she chooses not to, she doesn't have to. I am praying that this agency can force her to administer the antibiotics and fluids or remove her as POA and let her family do it. Seeing the condition she was in tonight, I am still so scared. It was definitely a win getting her to agree to change the meds to prn but I feel like it is too late. This is a severely dehydrated woman with a weakened immune system and an increasingly bad uti who is not receiving any of her health sustaining meds. I feel like the only chance she has at survival is to be transferred to a hospital and immediately put on fluids and iv antibiotics and have her medicine schedule resumed. I know in my heart that will bring her back to normal. And even if she stays a little loopy she can go into a nursing home if the daughter doesn't want to deal with her. This is the 21st century. We don't kill people just because they start losing their cognitive ability. This is destroying me. I feel so helpless. I'm not even family. I am being forced to stand by and watch someone I love be killed. I blame myself because I didn't try to do something sooner because I know in my heart it's too late. And honestly I think the POA does too and that's the only reason she agred to change the meds. This is so sad....how is this legal? This girl needs to be arrested. any advice or support anyone can offer would be greatly appreciated.
ReplyDeletePeople need to know what is happening with Medicare and Hospice. My sweet mother died after 11 days in a Hospice facility. The hospital (a reputable teaching hospital) did a hard sell pitch for Hospice when my mom was admitted for the end stages of brain cancer. I was naive enough to believe everything they told me. I am am RN. I know my mom was dying, but in my opinion, Hospice did not provide comfort and support in her final days, they KILLED HER!! Her care was atrocious. Nobody checked on her except to give large doses of Morphine and Ativan. My mother was in minimal pain at the hospital. She knew me and could communicate with us when she was in the hospital, On arrival at Hospice they started the meds and she never opened her eyes again. I am so sad about the way my mother died. I was her POA and I feel like I killed her when I signed the paperwork for her to go to the Hospice that was supposed to be so wonderful.
ReplyDeleteA few weeks later my neighbor's husband died of cancer at the same Hospice. When I spoke to my neighbor about their experience from hospital to Hospice, it was exactly like ours.
I will tell everyone I can about what happens to patients in a Hospice. The partnership they have with Medicare and hospitals is like something out of American Horror Story.

house and knelt down begging for forgiveness and for me to accept him
back.. I am really short of expressions, and i don't know how much to
convey my appreciation to you Dr omoze.. you are certainly a God sent to me
and my entire life and family.. he did his work just as he guaranteed me in
24 hours and it yielded an optimistic result to me and i was able to get my
Husband back. right now my Husband has falling so much in love with me and

ReplyDeleteAvoid hospice care at all costs by taking preemptive measures (where possible) to avoid these evils places, such as encouraging your elderly relatives and others you may know to get adequate exercise (45 minutes of walking a day and for the elderly three 15 minute walks a day to space out exertion); obtain adequate amounts of natural sunlight while avoiding the noon day sun; eat healthy food and avoiding smoking and intoxicating drinks; drink purified water/spring water; and eating a healthy diet. Additionally, I have been told that the mechanism in the brain that controls the signal for warning the body to drink water turns off or does not work properly in many elderly people resulting in their not drinking adequate amounts of water which will lead to the deterioration of the mind and body -- so make sure the elderly people you know are drinking adequate amounts of water throughout the day in order that their bodies are properly hydrated and that toxins are more readily removed from their bodies.

ReplyDeleteThanks to Dr.ehichoya for giving me the opportunity to test from his Power. I was wondering why most successful people talk more about him even in my neighborhood on how he has been bringing back ex-lovers and making them achieve their lost opportunities and being successful. I doubted some enough until when I tried his power last month via his email.
Dr.ehichoyaspelltemple@gmail.com to cast a reunion spell and brought back my “lover” after three years of our separation within 48hours that he promised. Everything he did was like a movie in my eyes; it was so fast and effective. I felt a strong power in me when he was casting the spell which made me stronger in spirit to invite my lover spirit back to me.
I don’t have much to say, but to keep thanking him and telling people how I got the love of my life back and how I also got my dream job through his power which he promised. Please stop doubting and give him a try and see for yourself, open up your heart and focus on all the instructions from him and you will see results on your door post.

I know that this post may be futile and will likely be deleted because this author is unable to have other points of view voiced here, BUT, I am going to write this because someone may read this. I am sorry for those of you that have had horror stories and there are always going to be bad people and bad organizations in every profession. This article spends a lot of time focusing on how it is the goal of hospice to make people die faster to save the government money but the flaw in this theory is that all hospices are paid per patient just as hospitals are paid per procedure/visit/ect. It would not be a smart move for hospices to hasten death in any way as they have to pay their staff, but I can tell you that people that are in hospice do not do this for money. I am a hospice nurse and I decided to get into hospice after my father died at the age of 52 under hospice care. They gave him dignity and peace, dignity and peace that he would never had found in a hospital or nursing home. I can tell you that I take every death very personally and I hold each and every patient in my heart every time, every single time someone passes, it is something that no human should ever be able to take lightly. Every hospice nurse and employee I have had the pleasure of knowing and working with have been the most dedicated people I have ever met. Many times people get stuck in the anger part of the grieving process because it is never fair when someone dies. The hospice staff understand this and accept this and will carry the burden of blame because they understand that this is what needs to happen for people that cannot get over the anger.
ReplyDeleteI challenge the author of this article to not delete opposing views, cynical and mean comments are fine to get rid of, nobody needs anymore negativity in life
Thank you for your post. My heart is working with hospice patients and their families to give them the best care possible and the most life in those remaining days. Hospice nurses are misrepresented in this thread. I have worked as social worker and now an administrator in hospice. I understand that people grieve differently and sometimes need to blame others... Am I saying there is no politics in hospice? Of course there are, anywhere that people receive money for services there will be some level of corruption. But I know these nurses that work 70 hours a week to love on your family. I watch them break down over the death of their patients that they love. No one wants to hasten the death of a loved one. More education is needed for people to truly understand the end of life and medication used.
DeleteI will agree with you on payment. Our company is reimbursed per day. Why would we want to hasten death strictly from a business perspective. And there is not a limit on payment... We have some of our patients for a year or longer. They are our family....
I am so sorry that these individuals are dealing with such anger and misunderstanding....

you are part of the problem.
DeleteWhy would a hospice take your loved one 50-60 miles away to a special clinic and tell you that the need to observe them for 72+ hours without any family visitation?
ReplyDeleteThey won't.

ReplyDeleteIt's very sad that people believe Hospice is killing people. Hospice is only called in when there is no more hope to be had. You people obviously were not ready to say goodbye to your loved ones, but to accuse them of killing patients only places you in the tinfoil hat category of conspiracy theorists. How very sad for all of you, and specially the person who wrote the original blog. Shame on you all.
ReplyDeleteMy mom wasn't terminal.She had a vitamin D deficiency and at 69 years old , the doctors finally discovered it,when they dismissed her for years,saying she had arthritis. She had brittle bones from a vitamin deficiency and had a fracture in her spinal cord and then they forced her down flat on her back screamed and crying in pain for more xrays and caused 3 more fractures in her spinal cord and then they still never treated her vitamin deficiency and then her femur fractured while sitting on the toilet and then off to another hospital,where the nurses didn't believe she was in pain from brittle bones and then man handled her and dislocated her hip and then the doctors trying to relocate her hip back in the socket,shattered her pelvis bone and then they sent her to another hospital to fix the damage they did and then the doctors there asked us who abused and neglected this woman?(implicating family had abused her) when we told them all this occurred from her being in the other hospital,they became silent and then proceeded to tell us they couldn't fix it and sent her to a nursing home and 3 days later hospice was called and she was in a comatose state.The young nurse there told me she didn't understand why hospice was called because the night before she sat with her and she was eating and talking and watching tv. I asked the hospice nurse to stop giving her the medication to see if she would wake up and talk and my older sister said it would be cruel to wake her and have her feel pain and then the hospice nurse joined in. I was fixing to scream and cuss them both ,so I went outside and cried feeling helpless. I sat there and watched my mom die feeling powerless to stop it. I knew it was wrong. What ran through my mind was to beat the living shit out of my sister and threaten to kill the hospice nurse if she didn't get out. I wish I would have done that now,because now I feel guilt and pain and I remember what she said to me in the hospital,she said"Mandy,they're killing me.I'm only 37 years old and I'm not terminal either,But I feel nothing but pain ,where is my hospice nurse to put me out of my misery? I wish there was such a thing as a God and hell so I could make a pact with the devil, so I could torture and watch burn for eternity all those people involved and people just like you. Lucky for all of you there is no God,but unlucky for you there is karma and one day you will have a spouse that at the first extreme hospital visit,that the doctors say it is too expensive to fix you and they could call hospice out,and he's going to think of the life insurance policy he has on you and that hot little 18 year old that he's been whacking off to and thinking about trading your ass on that younger model and this is his perfect chance and doesn't have to look like the bad guy this way and then the doctors and nurses are going to torture you to death and that is why karma is BEAUTIFUL.
DeleteSHAME ON HOSPICE FOR MURDERING SO MANY PEOPLE, AND SHAME ON YOU FOR SAYING SHAME ON YOU! BE FOR REAL! THEY ARE MURDERERS...NOTHING ELSE, JUST LIKE AN ABORTION DOCTOR IS! CALL IT SWEET THINGS BUT THEY KILL PEOPLE ON PURPOSE, PEOPLE THAT DO NOT WANT TO DIE! MURDER IS KILLING, AND YOU THINK OTHERWISE, WELL, YOU THINK WRONG!
DeleteShame on you for thinking for one second that Hospice staff do for the paycheck. Most nurses get into healthcare to help people. According to you this should be free? Educate yourself so you don't sound so ignorant in this manner. Palliative care is not defined this way let alone reimbursed by insurance or Medicare. Your comment is insulting in the least.
ReplyDeleteI watched my father die. Lung cancer is a hell of a thing. I am sorry so many of you on this board had bad experiences. In my case hospice was a God send! They didn't drug him to get him to die quick, he was dying! The cancer had him in so much pain and hospice took that pain away. Maybe he passed a few days sooner, but he was in no pain when he did. It's hard to see a loved one die, it's worse to see them suffer with breakthrough pain. So, for all the hospice nurses who keep our loved ones pain free at the end of an illness that would cause excruciating pain for them I say thank you from the bottom of my heart. For the nurses that cared for my Dad, I will never forget the love and compassion you showed for him and his family.
ReplyDeleteMy sons father was on a morphine drip. He had hospice. His girlfriend took him off the drip and then put the line back in later that day.10 minutes later he went into cardiac arrest. Is any One other then hospice supposed to operate the machine.
ReplyDeleteI am looking for a Florida Atty to talk to about a hospice experience which was very upsetting. Hospice signed my Mom up when she was at my Sister's home without my acknowledgement or consent. I did not consider my Mom eligible for hospice and I had told hospice so previously before they signed her up. My sister and I shared care for my Mom. I was my Mom's health POA. I had informed hospice previously I was the health POA. They ignored it. Many things happened that were very upsetting to me and my Mom. When she came back to my home, she wanted me to call 911 for her to go to ER. Hospice nurse would not let me take her there. Hospice would not see her at my place or let me know my Mom's status. Would only see her at my Sister's place. When I explained to Mom why she could not go to ER (for cardiac symptoms), she did not even know she was in hospice, was upset and wanted out. I took her next day to hospice and she signed herself out. I obtained the hospice records and there were numerous lies about my Mom's condition when they admitted her. There were numerous lies about me. There were many other things that happened which was upsetting to my Mom and me. My Mom died a number of months ago. I am upset because hospice is getting away so many things that are lies, illegal and other.
ReplyDeleteThis article is NOT bogus bullshit. I have just went through this with my mother. She had a MRSA infection in her bladder and aspiration Pneumonia. The pneumonia was caused by her inability to talk for almost 5 month which weakened her throat and caused her not to be able to swallow well. In those 5 months I had repeatedly told the hospice team that she was over medicated from the day she came home from the hospital with Ativan, 150 mg of Effexor, Ritalin, Trammadol, Norco amoung a multitude of other meds. She went in with a severe bladder infection and had a stroke while there that went ignored and untreated. The doctors did not even check her CT and MRI scans and sent her up to the psyche ward of the hospital. She was there for almost a month and they kept her doped up. We brought her home and put her on hospice and was told her diagnosis was dementia with ASVD in her brain. I signed into her medical account online and found out about the stroke from her test results along with the fact they treated her with the wrong antibiotics. The whole time she was on hospice she got worse NOT BECAUSE OF HER DISEASE BUT BECAUSE OF BEING UNTREATED AND OVERMEDICATED. I was constantly ignored about the fact she was crying when she peed, was peeing large amounts of pus, when she refused her meds for a few days she was completely lucid and talking AND they ignored the fact she was coughing and gurgling and started running a fever (obvious pneumonia). When I brought all this to their attention they would simply tell me is was the disease process and ignore the situation. My mother after 2 days in the hospital being treated is talking more than she has in 5 month and is completely coherent as they took her off ALL meds to see if she would come around. She did. They sent her to a nursing home to finish out her IV antibiotics and to get therapy for her swallowing which is immensely better after the first 3 days in the hospital. At the nursing home they put her BACK on the Effexor and the Ativan even after I told them I wanted her OFF of them and to be put back on Zoloft 50 mg. Instead they put her back on both but UPPED THE ATIVAN to one every four hours as needed but the staff can decide if she needs if for agitation. I am heading up there tomorrow to raise hell and I will be damned if I put her back on hospice unless she is a few days away from death. They almost killed her and I made the mistake of trusting what they said. Never again. Everything in my heart said NO MORE HOSPICE!!!
ReplyDeletehow can you let your mother spend 500.000 dollars on you 2 in the last 3 years and the first sign of trouble .HOSPICE .then you drain her bank account.hospice sure picks WINNERS.my mom is still alive and i will do everything in my POWER TO KEEP THAT.some body typed a beautiful prayer before i scrolled here.THANK YOU.i am at the point that i need to remember GOD is control and not me.that being said its a wonderful prayer.THIS WHOLE THING HAS TAKEN ITS TOLL.every thing that i have read in here is going down exactly like people have said.dementie is no reason to TERMINATE anyone.if they realy want someone to die...KILL YOURSELF
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to update the info on my mom to just PROVE how wrong hospice is for "Dementia patients". Now that my mom is off of those crazy meds and has been treated for a MRSA bladder infection, aspiration pneumonia, low potassium and low thyroid levels. She is completely alert, talking, laughing, eating like crazy, recongnizes all of us everyday and is starting therapy already. She is 100% herself again now that we have treated what hospice wouldn't and took her off the meds they used to overmedicate her. She had aspiration pneumonia because she stayed so over medicated her throat got weak from no swallowing or talking. PROTECT YOUR LOVED ONES. Hospice should NOT be involved unless your loved one is dying from an actual terminal disease like cancer. They will tell you its the disease process and then watch as someone dies who shouldn't. They tell themselves they are being merciful but they are not better than people who run kill shelters for animals. Thank you to the powers that be for giving me the courage to stand up for my mom against the hospice machine and thank you for giving me mom back 100%!!!
ReplyDeleteMy husband is in hospice care for end stage Parkinson's. (He is also in remission from pancreatic cancer but was not admitted to hospice for the cancer) A couple of months ago he became ill and the hospice nurse had me take him to their inpatient facility. They immediately took him off ALL his medications, food and water and administered morphine because he was "transitioning" into active death. They were seeing things in him that were the Parkinson's and NOT because he was dying. You don't die from Parkinson's but rather from complications such as pneumonia or head injuries. They never even entertained the possibility that he might "just' have a virus or some type of treatable infection. He told them he was in no pain but they insisted he have morphine. I pitched a fit about the food and water because he has a living will stating that he wanted to be fed and hydrated. So i continued to feed and hydrate him. I stayed with him round the clock. He began to run a low grade temperature and I was told that he couldn't have Tylenol until his temp went over 101.2 Once it shot up to 103 they gave the Tylenol. They told me he had no bowel sounds and yet he was having bowel movements. They said his kidneys were shutting down but as soon as I started giving him water it was obvious his kidneys were working just fine. I refused to allow them to give him more morphine. After 10 days I took him home. That was 2 months ago and he is still with us, still not in any pain and has survived pneumonia and a UTI since then. I give him the option of treating or not treating these infections and he opts to treat. He is not ready to die just yet. But I will NEVER admit him to the hospice facility again. That being said, the people they send out to my home are wonderful. They never push anything on us that we don't want and they are compassionate and helpful. I am fairly certain the cancer is back but he wants no more treatment so I'm sure the end is coming but I intend to keep him at home as long as possible until/if his oncologist, not the hospice doc,says he needs the hospital.

He began to run a low grade temperature and I was told that he couldn't have Tylenol until his temp went over 101.2 Once it shot up to 103 they gave the Tylenol. They told me he had no bowel sounds and yet he was having bowel movements. They said his kidneys were shutting down but as soon as I started giving him water it was obvious his kidneys were working just fine. I refused to allow them to give him more morphine. After 10 days I took him home. That was 2 months ago and he is still with us, still not in any pain and has survived pneumonia and a UTI since then. I give him the option of treating or not treating these infections and he opts to treat. He is not ready to die just yet. But I will NEVER admit him to the hospice facility again. That being said, the people they send out to my home are wonderful. They never push anything on us that we don't want and they are compassionate and helpful. I am fairly certain the cancer is back but he wants no more treatment so I'm sure the end is coming but I intend to keep him at home as long as possible until/if his oncologist, not the hospice doc,says he needs the hospital.
ReplyDeleteYou are all completely wrong..... Hospice is a service to people who are dying. Either way you slice it, they are dying! Hospice provides the medications, home health aides and anything else a patient and family needs to live their last days at home (not in a cold hospital being poked, prodded and toyed with for no reason). You all need bereavement counseling and support! When we lose someone we love it's so easy to blame someone else!
ReplyDeleteThey are offered hospice even when they have a long way to go, because hospice insurance offers home care etc. Then killed quickly and unable to talk to loved ones. Hospice nurses are brainwashed into believing this is all normal. Kavorkian has found a way in.
DeleteSeveral loved ones have already been put down to the grave by this organization, and presently, my most beloved uncle is being killed by them, in cooperation with his own brother, who has custody of him, and wealds his control so determinedly, (ah, bow down type thing, makes me sick!) and they have taken his food away, and are getting ready to give him morphine at this moment. Pray for J.D.'s soul. May God (and He will!) vindicate these people being murdered by HOSPICE, what a scam against the people!
ReplyDeleteMy father n law is on hospice ans has been on it for over a year. They keep changing his meds. He is on lots of meds and is still alive. All of you should be greatful you could have had to take your loved ones to doctor everyday.

ReplyDeleteYou guys are nuts and clearly have no idea what hospice is about. It is palliative care for people who want to quit living. So yes they give morphine and Ativan to help people as they end their lives. If one doesn't want palliative care for a loved one, if you want to medicate and keep them alive,,,..why on earth would you have them in hospice?? Makes absolutely no sense. I have nothing but praise for the hospice nurses that helped my mom and dad at the end
ReplyDeleteIf is not for people who want to quit living. It is for people who have no life left. Example: Insurance stopped Mother's nutritional drink, Hospice Dr. stops multi vitamin, she can't eat because the medication is making her sick (she wasn't vomiting before the massive pain meds) and since she was not eating she became malnourished and skin would not heal. But somehow that is my fault. It hink not. The Dr said they wer enot in the business of assisted suicide, but what he was doing is murder. She didn't have one comfortable day in four months, Now she is out of my hands without anyone to stand up for her rights. Yes, she wants to die, but she didn't sign up for this torture.
DeleteI have read through several stories and comments and seen the hatred towards hospice providers. What some of you may not know that there are thousands of hospice companies out there and every single one of them is different!! I suggest some of you google or even search you tube the words "terminal restlessness" and see how people act who are not on the awful morphine and Ativan. As a CNA for hospice I have to stand up and say that the hospice company I work for does what we can to make everyone (including the patient) happy and comfortable! If you want medication during the end of life your loved one will receive it if you choose not to use medication at the end of life then you don't use it. NOBODY at the hospice company I work for forces you to give anyone anything that the loved ones don't want or need. As I was reading along I noticed some complaints about hospice or Medicare not paying for certain medications. Well hospice will cover only medications that are related to the terminal illness. So for example if you have COPD then hospice will cover the expenses of you or loved ones inhaler and or breathing treatments. Be thankful they are even paying for part of the medication. For those of you who are POA and your loved one is on hospice... You have a right to revoke services at any time! If you are the POA you should have been the one to sign the patient up for services anyway. So with that being said I'm sure most of you are thinking "she's just a CNA what the hell does she know!?" I know a lot!!! 13+ years as a CNA and an EMT (emergency medicine) I have seen people pass some horrible deaths and I have seen people pass so peacefully. (On and off hospice) I have worked in long term care facilities (also known as nursing homes) and the nurses in long term care give the morphine and Ativan just like the "awful, lying, murder, SOB" hospice companies do. Just a few more things and my rant will be over... My father on hospice for 3 weeks, as my mom and I took care of him, assisting with eating, using the restroom, bathing! Thank goodness for our hospice company that we chose... They were absolutely WONDERFUL!!! Anyway I currently take care of people who are coming off hospice services do to being on for so long and not showing any signs of a decline. (Which is a good thing) so just because someone is on hospice don't mean you are going to die anytime soon. The good lord knows when it's time rather there is medication involved or not!!!

DeleteI have taken care of my Mother for almost 15 years now. I know her body and actions and moods inside and out. She never acted out the way she did just a short time after being over medicated. This is not comfort care seeing monsters all because of the medication. They should have left her on the pain medications she was on since they worked best for her. Maybe you should google the side effects of Haldol and Dilaudid on the elderly. No more Hospice I take her to ER and am told she shouldn't not have been on those high amounts. Two days after discontinuing those medications she was fine. Now back in the hands of murderers she is confused and agitated. Who the hell give two out of three daily doses of pain meds before 10am and right before a care meeting where they cannot participate duet o sedation.
DeleteI finally knew it was time we had to do something so against my better judgment I hired a local Hospice Agency. The Dr. immediately stated to abruptly discontinued medications and immediately change pain med regime that had been working. They just kept upping dosages, but refuesd to give updated med list showing those changes. The nurse would not show, she wouldn't call to cancel nor did the office. They ignored my concerns about the pain meds causing the hallucinations, delusions, agitation, vomiting, violent body jerking etc. Refused to sign off of in home full length bed rail since pain meds were causing her to jerk and fall out of bed getting hurt. The nurse called in sick several more times after. Said she would order pain meds on Tues., by Sun still no delivery. So I call Hospice and they say no order on file - the nurse never ordered the meds. Nurse talks to me about wound care supplies and then at next visit doesn't have them and says did we discuss that? I don't' remember. So I fired that agency. I called the second Hospice and they said they didn't think they could do any better of a job. I said you can't show up when you are supposed to show up, can't order meds on time and bring supplies needed. OK. I call the third and last Hospice in area and they accepted my Mother. Never saw a physician, just nurse and social worker. They just kept upping pain medications multiples of times and refused to supply family with updated med list showing dosage changes. For four months I voiced my concerns over the barrier cream not working, it says right on the tube if it isn't working after 7 days call Dr. Call if wounds heal but return. So, I did, They said this is the cream we supply. I said it does not work this other one does, they refuse to supply it. They finally brought something else but it didn't work either. Insurance took away my Mothers nutritional drink, Hospice discontinues multi vitamin. Mother can't eat and is foaming at the mouth vomiting and I am told this is normal. No, it all started with the medication changes. Not once did family get a "care plan" in writing. After four months of being told I am doing a good job, a great job and you are doing you best, after the wound care nurse came to visit and I told her about the problems I was having about getting the pain medications addressed, getting a barrier cream that worked and didn't dry and pull off the new skin, the need for a full length bed rail and not getting medication lists or care plans and three falls out of be could have been prevented if we had a full rail, they turned me in to protective services to cut me off before I could file a complaint against them. They fired us and would not come back in the home because they claimed I was confrontational. How can voicing your concerns over your loved ones care be confrontational. In fact we laughed, joked, talked about our family, kids, pets and gardens. Now I can't get the nursing home to listen to me and APS threatened me with neglect charges if I didn't let this Hospice care for her when they caused the problems in the first place. My Mother said, "Why are they lying?" and all I can say to cover their asses. Now Mom is pushing me away and telling me not to stress. How can I not stress. So I go into the nursing home tonight and her roommate broke the connecter to the control of her air bed and she sat their for 3 hours and not one employee noticed; not cna's or nurses. So, do I voice my concern and be charged with interfering with her care, or do I let it go being turned off and then being charged with neglect because I knew about it and did nothing. We call the Dr., Dr, Death. how can these people live with themselves to make a 80 year old live the last four months of her life being chased by imaginary monster with long black legs flying around the room and screaming from imaginary terrors.
ReplyDeleteThere are some people who refuse to be educated and many with poor coping skills.
ReplyDeleteI agree with your writings, hospice is killing patient the legal way..by morphine overdose or dehydration. My mom was dead in 3 days due to dehydration. My sister-in-law had cancer and she checked into hospice with great dispositon, eating all of her favorite foods and 3 days later she was dead, my husband says they just know when the time is right...I say bull shit..nobody eats like a horse and is dead 3 days later..."wake up and smell the coffee" Hospice is an acceptable way to kill people, they speed up the process..and lawmakers are okay with this...I hope and pray I am never admitted to hospice...the house of death.
ReplyDeleteThese stories are exactly like ones I know personally. One lady I know had a husband He was a sweet man with Alzheimer's and not dying. Went to hospital for something and was supposed to be ok. Hospice was brought in. She chose to take the advice of in-home Hospice nurse tell her not to give her husband water even though he begged and cussed. She was tortured by his all night cries and he died. After her short relief from her husband by his passing, she became so depressed she is in a mental hospital getting shock treatments. I think guilt got to her.
ReplyDeleteI am from USA, I was diagnosed of Emphysema (COPD) in 2015 and I have tried all possible means to get cured, i even visited pulmonologist but all to no avail, until i saw a post in a health forum about a herbal doctor from Africa who prepare herbal medicine to cure all kind of diseases including Emphysema, at first i doubted if it was real but decided to give it a try, when i contacted this herbal doctor via his email he sent me the Emphysema herbal medicine through courier service, when i received this herbal medicine, he gave me step by instructions on how to apply it, when i applied it as instructed i was totally cured of this deadly disease within 12-14 days of usage, if you are suffering of this diseases you can as well Contact this great herbal doctor via his email drlusandaherbal@gmail.com
ReplyDeleteMy mother became dehydrated and developed a UTI. They said she was unresponsive - but she responded to ME. They refused to take her to the hospital or rehydrate her because she was "in hospice". She drank a glass of orange juice later in the week, but they still refused to give her IV fluids. She did not have a lung problem, nor a problem passing urine - no problems retaining fluids. They ordered she was to have nothing by mouth, but they squirted the atropine in and she choked on it. They were giving her morphine pills orally w/o water. I was absolutely stunned. They didn't want to poke her, but they were willing to CHOKE her.
ReplyDeleteThere is nothing that hospice does that cannot be provided by the nursing home. When hospice is involved when your loved one is in the nursing home, they have a tendency not to know who is doing what or providing care. Watch for signs of neglect, whether they are in the hospital, nursing home, or hospice. Are their hands always dirty with food under the nails? What about their mental status? Do they seem out of it? (It could be drugs or dehydration) Please be observant. I was told by hospice that Mom would be eligible for more services on hospice, but in fact, when she became dehydrated I found out that was totally opposite when they refused to rehydrate her. In retrospect I can see that she'd been becoming dehydrated over a couple of weeks and if she'd been getting enough fluids, she probably would have been ok. They also didn't notify me when she went from being able to walk to the pal lift again, and then to a full back wheelchair and 4pt lift. When you're going through it alone, the shock of what's happening can keep you from seeing these things. Please, please, please keep aware....
ReplyDeleteI work Hospice I'm a CNA yes I've seen these horror stories.

ReplyDeleteTo all the hospice workers and employees I feel that you may not be aware that what your doing is hastening death.. How can so many people have the same experience all be wrong. The problem is that the workers are telling the family "this is the normal process of death" so you assume they are right but all along you feel like it's wrong and you don't know what to do!! You feel helpless and maybe you don't have dpoa.. You aren't a doctor so you don't know what would be the best alternative option. How can a person EVEN WITH TERMINAL CANCER one minute be able to talk to you and then gets the morphine and is not able to talk.. Or sit up or communicate. My dad barely takes Tylenol OF COURSE IF YOU LOAD HIM WITH MORPHINE AND ADAVAN HES GOING TO BE KNOCKED OUT. I honestly think the nurses think it's the normal process and the right thing to do because they have been doing it for so long no one is questioning it. Also to the director or nurse who said hey get paid daily so why get rid of them.. Your administrators and office managers And CEOS aren't bedside.. Do you think nurses and AIDS are worried about the financial of the company??? NOPE.. They are going through the motions of what some doctor or medical director told them is helping "the normal process". This is my 3rd family member I've watched slip away too soon with hospice.. I'd rather die at home in my bed with my mind right!
ReplyDeleteHow does someone contact, support groups on this matter? I had 2 parents- that were put down by hospice- I want to get to the bottom of it.
