I have a very good friend of mine who was in a tragic motorcycle accident in the State of Arizona. He suffered critical injuries, and after the accident went into a coma considered paralyzed with a 0% chance to walk again, and no possibility of brain comprehension beyond a 12 year old capability. He has since came out of his coma and is developing quickly, he thinks very well and has feeling in his legs, and can wiggle his toes. He is in Capri Rehabilitation Center in Phoenix and I went to visit this past weekend. The hospital is disgusting and the nurses are extremely rude to their patients. If a patient pushes his call button, it takes at least an hour for someone to respond. I walked in to visit him for the last time before I had to drive back home yesterday to Las Vegas, and he was naked stuck on the bed. When I asked him what happened he said that the nurse was hurting his legs and when he told her she through his diaper brief on the bed and told him to do it himself. The nurse had already left for her break with absolutely no concern for his well being. Not to mention the stain above his headboard which seemed to be urine splashed on the wall.All of his family is in Houston, TX and I would like to know who to contact in regards to the situation, possibly getting him moved to another facility or getting sent home to Houston. And yes of course he is on Federal Funding…who woulda thought that one lol If you have any pertinent information or a good way for me to go about research please let me know, all info is helpful.
State Medical Laws in Arizona and Federal Medical Laws?
