From the post: "Patients are more likely to fall, get new infections, or experience other forms of harm during their stay in a hospital after it is acquired by a private equity firm, according to a new study led by researchers at Harvard Medical School.

The research, published Dec. 26 in JAMA, is among a handful of recent nationwide analyses of how private equity takeovers affect the quality of patient care in hospitals. The increases are seen in conditions or outcomes deemed preventable and are key measures of hospital safety and quality."

When your relatives are in the hospital, especially when they need assistance, visit them every day. Long ago my grandmother was in the hospital and the nurses put food in front of her and then took away the uneaten tray. She needed assistance to eat. We caught it in the first day and visited each day after. Don't trust hospitals.

Exactly this. Also make sure you know what medications they are giving and when. Over 75% of deaths in long term care are human error and preventable.
