This is frightening information, especially as it is being posted by a high ranking official in the OIG. Nursing homes are populated with the weak and helpless members of our communities and here we have evidence that they are being drugged into submission. Too many of us, however, fail to see the danger in this. We've become so complacent about drug use that we nonchalantly let people abuse our older family members. Of course, this must be stopped. On another level, the problem is even greater - WE use too darn many drugs ourselves - and we are even comfortable administering amphetamines to our children - to HELP THEM CONCENTRATE. What a bunch of bunk.
Let's stop and take stock of what we're doing and what we're becoming.
