Nursing Home Monitor Tablet

Help to protect your loved one with My Nursing Home Monitor.


Nursing home abuse and neglect are rampant. Too many horror stories involve what occurs to the elderly when they are not properly cared for within a facility. It has never been more important (especially with Alzheimer's on the rise) to observe and record events related to the care of your loved one. So many of the elderly do not have the memory or mental capacity to advocate for themselves. Like children, they are helpless and defenseless.

Features of this App. allow you to record:

Encounters
Abuse & Neglect
Bowel habits
Injuries
Meal intake
Medication/vaccination intake (or lack thereof)
Symptoms
Cleanliness of room/facility
Hygiene
Hydration/dehydration
Medical care (or lack thereof)
Other observations, such as what you are told (name/title) by employees, concerning your loved one
Photos
E-mail Reports


Once you have recorded your "encounters," you can e-mail the reports for personal or legal reasons. This tool can be used to try and improve the situation for your loved one. Sharing the log of unacceptable observances with the management team of the Nursing Home may help to rectify the situation as they see you as someone who pays attention and DOCUMENTS what is observed at the facility. If communication doesn't result in improved/acceptable care, your documentation can be useful within the context of a legal consultation, and/or to report elder abuse to appropriate state/federal agencies.
