My dad has been in a Louisville nursing home for a few months. Since he’s been there, I’ve noticed him becoming increasingly fearful and quiet. He has always been a stoic man, afraid of nothing. I don’t know what to do.Category: General

I just got home from my Louisville pharmacy and was going to take the medicine I just got refilled. The pill looks a bit different from those in the bottle I just finished, but there’s no label on the bottle stating that it’s the same medication even though it looks different. I don’t want to sound like a fool, but should I call the pharmacist?Category: Medical Malpractice

My mother has been living in my house, and my wife has been taking care of her. My children are in grade school. I just found a spot for my mother in a nearby Kentucky nursing home. I didn’t want to do this, but I have to. My wife has to start bringing in a second income or we’ll lose our house. How can I make this transition easier for my mother?Category: General

My mom lives in a Louisville nursing home. During my visits with her, I’ve noticed that she acts nervous and agitated when she is around one of the other residents—a man. She won’t talk about him, but I suspect she is being harassed in some way by the man. He always seems to be watching her. Exactly what constitutes sexual abuse?Category: General

I visited my mom in her Louisville nursing home yesterday, and while I was there, one of the male residents wandered into her room. When he saw that I was there, he turned around and left. My mom said that he walks into her room often and makes suggestive remarks, and when she tells him to get out, he refuses. He only leaves when she presses the call button. The staff do not believe her when she describes what is happening; the man is apparently quite charming, and they like him. What can we do?Category: General
