The surprising fact is those with 5 stars at least some can be even worse than those with 1 star. Ohio is one of the only states that can manipulate the system as far as ratings to place that person in a facility for one. If the same criteria would be used in another state that person would not qualify for living in the facility epically with mental health. I along with others have witnessed my mother abused, her belongings stolen, medical documentation being changed purposely among other acts that doesn't make sense in the least. Ohio is rapidly placing people in guardianship which aren't warranted to bypass many laws in place to protect. Ohio is committing people without using the law that is in place to protect people from being committed and isolated from society just for having a disability. The agencies in place to place complaint do nothing to assist in helping your loved one. This man isn't the only one this has happened to this is for sure. There are examples of how even a mother questioned her sons care at a group home which he was abused and instead of investigating the abuse the child was taken from his mother then placed with a professional guardian. Scenic Pointe in Holmes County, Ohio received billion dollar grants from the Veteran Administration but just this year has changed all advertising to admit just that they accept Veterans. It has been witnessed that these veterans are doing everything to be released only to then be placed in guardianship with no choice but live the rest of their lives in this facility. It might seem from the surface this is a 5 star facility but further research would show anyone a different picture. If you look up probate records if can be seen that some are referred to as special projects? They are always denied a jury trial when requested and any legal counsel allotted to them always will have a conflict of interest that is very easy to find. People are suffering in Ohio from corruption & fraud my mother is a pure example as this father is and no legal aspect in Ohio is listening to those who are begging for their help to protect their loved one. It is at least inspiring that Ohio has seemed to finally be receiving the negative attention it deserves to retain the help many of need to save our loved one. Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
