I keep seeing threads on this forum from people that are investigated by APS. How common is this? Does it happen a lot or is it just selection bias since people who get contacted come to post on this forum? We have never had any contact with APS. Should we expect it at some point?
i had all my ducks in a row and good reports from NH staff who saw me daily so it was quickly settled.
Then there is Mrs. D. She has been bedridden since before her husband died. She had family and aides caring for her. The last aide had not been paid in 2 weeks. The aide called APS and told them she was leaving and there was a vulnerable woman in the home in her 90s. They came and took Mrs. D out of her home. I would have loved to been there just to hear the choice words she probably used. Family had stopped caring for her. She was a miserable woman.
