“Last weekend my mom didn’t get clean sheets or towels.” Laurence Fleutiaux considers the situation of her 88-year-old mother “unacceptable.” She is a resident of the Simone-Veil nursing home in Maisons-Alfort in Val-de-Marne. “Fortunately I come every day but if that wasn’t the case I wonder what would happen to her“, continues her daughter.
With other relatives of residents, she denounces the lack of care given to the residents of this nursing home. Families also denounce lack of financial resources, personnel and health framework. Catherine Deleyrolle, another resident’s daughter, does not know how her mother sustained a hematoma on her head because she claims not to have been warned. “She had a bruise that went through all the colors on her temple and part under her eye. Some caregivers told me they didn’t see it. Even if it’s nothing serious, I want to be informed“, testifies Catherine Deleyrolle.
Families also denounce the lack of food offered within the establishment. “There’s not much on the plates. Sometimes I have to feed him again at 8 p.m. Legally, there must be no more than 12 hours between the evening meal and the morning breakfast. Here, there are fifteen of them”, comments a relative of a resident on condition of anonymity.
The Île-de-France regional health agency announced that it would carry out an inspection of the establishment in the coming months.
“The Agency’s complaints department recorded two complaints at the beginning of October which are currently being analyzed to shed light on the new events reported.“, she told France 3 Paris Île-de-France. When contacted, the management of the nursing home did not wish to comment.
