What is the name of your state?What is the name of your state? CA
I'm in dire need of advice. I have NO money for an attorney and the weinee I found who agreed to write a letter to the agency has backed down as soon as they responded with a letter from their own attorney which made nothing but false allegations about me.
I worked for a hospice for the past year as a quality control person. I was constantly amazed by the lack of care, failure to note medications and treatments in charts and backdating and falsification of records. Despite my reports, nothing changed. Despite the stress and the fact that I needed a job, I hung in there hoping I would make a difference. It became apparent that they did not value my opinion and when I realized I was in jeopardy, I submitted a letter to them asking for protection under the "Whistle Blowing" act. I notified numerous state and federal agencies, the mayor of the community, even tried local media to keep the aged and dying patents from suffering needlessly...all went ignored. I have documentation which I photocopied from files as part of my job. Now, the letter sent stated that I have slandered them, stolen files, and was a hostile employee. They have denied my unemployment benefits and forced me to give up my home and become ill from the worry. This was never about money for me, but now they have made it personal. I still want nothing more than my unemployment benefits which would allow me gas money to look for a job. I just want the horrible manner in which they abuse the dying and take advantage of state funding to cease. Can anyone suggest an avenue of help for these people?
Thank you.
