While it's been awhile since I've set foot in Beverly, I volunteered there on a at least weekly as a teen, for several years, and had a close older friend living there. While I made some good friendships with some of the residents, it didn't take much looking to see that the lives they were leading were horrible. I began realizing just how bad it was when my friend started having medical emergencies and I got the door code so I could come get her things for her when she was transferred to the hospital after visiting hours. Some of the nurses were not just negligent. They were downright vicious and seemingly mentally or emotionally disturbed. I walked in once after hours to see a woman suffering from dementia cowering and crying in her wheelchair in a corner while several of the techs and a head nurse played a cruel game of trying to jump at her, frighten her and make her angry. The director, when I spoke to her about it, seemed wholly unconcerned, and made it clear to me that by making complaints, my right to visit was in jeopardy.

My friend, a 40 year old woman with MS, not only received no therapy during the six years she was there, before we finally convinced TennCare to move her; she also received very little in the way of basic hygiene care. She had horrible bedsores because they never moved her. Instead, when I'd ask if they would help her stretch her arms and legs and turn her, they'd tell me to do it myself. I did, but there was only so much a small teen could do safely. My friend used to fake a heart attack just so she could be taken to the hospital where they'd give her a bath. They used to puree her food and make her drink it, not because there was anything wrong with her digestive system, but because they couldn't be bothered to sit there and feed her, and she couldn't easily hold a fork.

I often saw elderly people cry and beg for as much as an hour to be taken to the restroom, before they soiled themselves. The staff simply ignored them.

The worst part was walking through the wards at night, the couple of times I got a call from the hospital to get my friend's things because she'd had an emergency. That facility obscenely overused sedatives on their patients. Basically anytime anyone was unhappy or asked for too much, they got sedated. This happened to my friend several times. However, by nighttime, after the 8:00 am-9:00 pm visiting hours, the sedatives would have started to wear off, and the nurses would be circulating through the wards, giving everyone their nighttime doses of medicine. The sound at night was like something out of a horror movie. I would hear patients screaming, with no one attempting to calm or comfort them, and I often heard repeated over and over "No, I don't want to take my medicine. Please just let me die." The whole atmosphere was so wrong.

Please, please, don't send your loved ones to this horrible place.
