    • Close Brain Injury

      there is a particular guy in the nursing home who was in an accident 5 yrs ago causing a TBI. he has pretty much given up and deals with great anger issues. everyday i go to work early to spend time with him, i am the only one he has not lashed out at. i even go on my days off to spend time with him. i really need some advice and direction to turn. i want to help him in the worst way to get stronger and have the drive to live again!!!!

    • Close Caregivers

      i am a caregiver in a nursing home and it absolutely sucks how some of the residents get treated. i have to really watch my steps and what i say b/c it is my job. i am close with alot of the residents and their family members. there is one particular resident who i have become extremely close with and he is only 40 and has a brain injury! they pulled me off as his personal caretaker, they say they did it to protect my job. now i have to watch him go through neglect every single day.
