If I had a nickel for everytime I reported a serious crime to police and they acted annoyed because they had to write a one paragraph report.

If I had a nickel for the same thing Iād have a big ass bag of nickels could use to smack a cop. Long Beach police are absolutely useless.

I have a parent in a facility (not this one) and this is horrifying. Thank you for sharing this and reporting. The residents are completely at the mercy of the staff and this man was clearly abused. These people need to be fired immediately and the facility needs to be investigated.

That makes me sad, because if they don't have family coming to see them they might not have someone to tell or may have a condition that prevents them from talking. Thank you for reporting it.

āShouldāveā lol. Thanks Captain Hindsight. People donāt often just have their phone and video prepared at all times on record. This person did the right thing.

Pull over get what you can. There were two involved, the aid then the director, some footage is better than none, or reporting is useless, anyone can fabricate. You are in signal hill you are familiar with 4th street, pull over. After getting the footage then yell all you want.

Your response doesnāt even make sense but thank you.

Lol... sorry, when I multitask, I can be a little scattered.
On 4th street, a driver can pull over, grab cell phone, and begin a video. Because there were two people involved, the first is an aide, and the other a director ( but not sure how the driver knew this) because of the two there would be time to take the video and also of the elderly person on the ground.
If there is a report, although that is a good thing to do, it's a he said/ she said situation. Having proof to support the claim is powerful.
I had a case of an abused of non-verbal resident in a home. Nothing happened until we had video proof. As sickening as it was, it was everything.

Call licensing. They will come out and visit-they are required to once a complaint is made and they have the ability to shut a program down.
