Tell us a little about yourself or your loved one: | |
Q1: What was your situation when you or your loved one first started experiencing elder abuse, neglect, and/or fraud? (What was your/their living situation like, were you/they struggling with any health issues, etc.?) | Hello my name is Brian Jones and I first started getting neglected and abused back in 2021 at this nursing home called Pruitthealth Of Lilburn in Lilburn Georgia. |
Q2: What would you like to share about your story? | I was verbally abused, I was left sitting in feces and urine for long periods of time, I was denied being put in my wheelchair three times a week as it was stated in my care plan I was denied physical therapy because they said I was not a good candidate the head physical therapist lied and said she did a full body assessment on me and she did not because if she would have she would’ve found out that I can move my legs and arms and that’s the reason why I was denied physical therapy so I had to find outside physical therapist to work with me. |
Q3: What do you wish people knew about elder abuse, neglect, and fraud? | I wish more people would speak up about it to their love so they know what’s happening to them because it’s going on all over the world and the owners need to be held responsible for what’s going on inside of their facilities |
Q4: What are your hopes for the future? | My hope for the future is that Congress and all lawmakers would step in and hold these owners accountable for what’s happening inside of their facilities stop letting them choose people over profit and make them put some of the money that they made back into their facility because 80% of these facilities are so worn down and downright disgusting. |
