Dr. Mollette provides a very accurate description of the nightmare of nursing home placement. Anyone who is facing the trauma of having to place a loved one could benefit greatly by reading this book. Using the knowledge provided by his experiences helps prepare both the patient and the family for the horror of placement. His advice offers much in ways to be pro-active with nursing home staff and in the care of your loved one.

Written from a real life prospective, well researched and documented. Good read for someone who will soon be faced with choosing a nursing home for a loved one.

This book should be given to every person before they put someone they love in a nursing home.

It's time that these nursing home people that are carrying out such heinous acts of neglect be arrested and jailed. Five stars for this author.

My mother was abused in a nursing home. She was literally neglected until she died. Thank God someone has finally published a book that tells the horrors going on in today's nursing homes! Had we had Dr. Mollette's book our mother's life might have been saved!

Very negative book. Kept repeating same things over in different chapters. Seems like the facts stated kept changing. Book just didn't make sense.

i work at that nursing home he describes. i didn't work there during this described account, but i can assure you that the accusations of our staff are completely false. i have worked in several area nursing homes and can attest to the atrocities of long term care. by far, the facility he is descibing does not exist. we have one of the lowest patient-to-staff ratios in this area. perhaps dr. mollette should have visited a few other places before passing judgement...but i suppose we need ignorant people to help make the world go around.
