I'm not sure how the protocols for sedation work but I know liberals were behind things like that, the same as the misguided idiots closed down mental institutions in the belief that they were ‘’barbaric and it was thought just releasing mentally ill people into the ‘’community’’ was much more ‘’humane'' I know in the hospital I work a violent or aggressive patient will be ordered by a doctor or if the nursing staff director and or the chief of the security detail will order a violent patient to be ''physically restrained''( leather straps, ''four point restraint'') or a doctor will order ''chemical restraint''( meds).
On restraints - her husband asked they lock the wheelchair in place and restrain her after she went after another patient - they said the law doesn’t allow them to restrain her. It was a constant battle I tell you. Even taking her to the emergency room they said to stop bringing her there as nothing more they could do for her. Trying to get a different facility proved impossible because of her violent behavior. Round and round we went as the dastardly disease destroyed her brain.
BTW - these patients have no boundaries on the strength they use. It took three people to get her to ungrasp her hands off a staffs crotch she had latched onto! It’s beyond belief they would not sedate her!
Thank God, and after much prayer my sister went home with Jesus last year. She is no longer in misery but enjoying the Lord and all those she knew who went on before her - and at last in her own right mind!
