Discuss the resident’s rights in each situation. Mr. Jones has dentures. The nursing home is busy and dollars are tight. Mr. Jones is issued one pack of denture care tablets a month. His tablets are gone for this month (it is only the 20th of the month). No one is performing denture care because he has no tablets left. Which patient right is he being deprived of? How can this be fixed? Mr. Jones complains he does not like his dentures to be dirty. The CNA tells him he better watch out because if he complains enough, they will kick him out of the facility. Which patient rights is he being deprived of? How can this be fixed? Mrs. Smith is incontinent of urine. Her bed always has an incontinent pad on it. She is embarrassed because her bed is unmade and everyone can see the incontinent pad on it. What patient rights are being abused? How can this be fixed? Mr. Umbra has scabies (a highly contagious parasite). Mary, the new nursing assistant, refuses to take care of him because of this “bug.” What rights are being violated? How can this be fixed?
