Is this how we're all going to die in America? calling for help and others laugh.The family of James Dempsey, 89, of Woodstock, Ga., hid a camera in the late veterans room in the Northeast Atlanta Health and Rehabilitation Center which captured the night he died.
The video showed the decorated WWII veteran repeatedly calling for help, saying he could not breathe. It also showed the nurses failing to take life-saving measures and laughing as they tried to start an oxygen machine.

(12,540 posts)there are 2 cameras trained on his bed, but I don't think they record, just for the manager to check up on the caregivers in real time. But, taking their cue from the manager, they are patient and caring.
