FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda In a letter published in the Daily Telegraph, a group of politicians, regulators and charities called for NHS nurses and care workers to sign a ‘Dignity Code’ drawn up by the National Pensioners’ Convention, promising to treat pensioners with dignity.
Urging hospitals and care homes to agree a set of common standards of care to prevent cases of neglect and abuse, they warned that British pensioners are being spoken down to, prevented from taking decisions, and denied privacy and the best medical treatment.
“For too long, too many of those people have been ignored, denied the basic right to speak for themselves or make up their own mind,” the letter warned. “In this era of human rights, too many older people have seen their basic human dignity undermined in situations where they are treated as objects rather than people,” states the letter signed by 21 public figures.
Recently, a committee of MPs warned that around 1.20 million British elderly people are treated as “parcels” passed around a disorganized healthcare system that is dealing with spending cuts.
Gary FitzGerald, chief executive of the charity Action on Elder Abuse slammed standards of respect for elderly people in care for being deteriorated so badly over the last 10 years.
“When you are in an environment that degrades you every day in the little things, that you can’t escape from, that is death by a thousand cuts, that just destroys who you are, it is so humiliating or degrading, that’s what we have to deal with,” he added.
