Elderly woman mistreated at nursing home By Fann Sim | SingaporeScene -- Fri, Jun 10, 2011 A nursing home along Braddell Road has been suspended with effect from 12 April from admitting new patients after a patient was reported to have been mistreated. The incident at Nightingale Nursing Home came to light after a video of a patient being mistreated was sent to local broadcaster Mediacorp. The footage was shot by a hidden camera on a patient's bedside. In the video, an elderly woman patient is seen sitting stark naked beside a bed with the room ceiling fans on. She is then picked up by two hospital staff and thrown onto a bed, before a staff is shown slapping her on her mouth when she wailed in pain. Reports say the patient has been a resident there for four years and is suffering from stroke. According to Channel NewsAsia, the nursing home has disciplined the staff involved in the mistreatment case. The home also added that they've introduced additional measures such as checking the conduct of its staff and getting their senior staff to do the rounds. The elderly woman's son was upset with the incident. He said, "We sent her there for the nurses to take care of her; we're disappointed with what happened." The elderly woman has been moved to another nursing home. Netizens were unhappy with the mistreatment of the elderly woman. nivek001 said, "How can anyone be so heartless.

Elderly woman had been complaining of abuse for 3 years By Jeanette Tan | SingaporeScene -- Sat, Jun 11, 2011 The man who had secretly recorded his mother's abuse at Nightingale Nursing Home revealed that he did so in response to her complaints about their treatment. The 41-year-old, who identified himself as Mr Zhuo, told Shin Min Daily that of the four years his mother, Madam Bai, had stayed at the home, she had been complaining to him for about three years. This triggered his decision to place a hidden video camera disguised as a clock by his mother's bed at the home. The resulting footage obtained was recorded in March and handed to MediaCorp Channel 8, before it was sent to the Ministry of Health (MOH) on 22 March. Describing the recording, Zhuo said, "I saw that two nurses were helping my mother take a bath. They took off my mother's clothes and left her sitting in a chair for half an hour. In this time, a fan was blowing in her direction." He added that from his observation, the nurses did not help Madam Bai put her clothes back on after her bath. "Now I know why my mother is always saying she is cold in the mornings," he said. However, more abuse cases have since been revealed. At the Irene Nursing home and Serene Nursing Home, owner Irene Ong told The New Paper that she fired three foreign nursing staff from her centres over the past two years over incidents of abuse. Ong said that she was informed by other employees that the staff members in question had been <b>...</b>
