The guy is not sensible at all. If you've ever cared for a demented granny or lived with one in the house, you'll know that every little care with them is a war. From bathing to cleaning to feeding them, even just sitting with them is a work. Especially if such granny was a very energetic, disciplined and self sufficient person when they were young. They'll tell you they can do everything themselves, even for them to eat to take medication will be war.

Still it doesn't excuse some characters these careers exhibited in the video. There were some that were necessary for their job and some were excessive. Especially when the guy hit her with the pillow.

They should get the sack because they know well that if you're in Rome you do like Romans

What most people do not know about this job is that some of the individuals can be very nasty and difficult to work with particularly the seniors with the onset of dementia and all that stuff.

Most people in the field, even the whites, would never categorize this as an outright abuse though.

Human rights, human rights, is how they've emboldened and made the individuals difficult to manage, and when you allow them to keep their human rights in their filthiness and unkemptness, the authorities will still be the ones to complain about abandonment.

If we had a country or leadership, they would have been left to be cleaning up their own mess however it pleases them.

For the miscreant up there saying "People won't do this kind of job in Nigeria but will do it abroad". Your ignorance is "Harvard-trained". What government or private entities will pay people who do these jobs abroad what they make in 3-4 hours daily?

Now these blacks are now the scape goat, well I blame the bad economy created by our terrible black leaders, if not everyone would be in his country of origin doing suitable job.

She was being difficult? Saying stuff ‘disgusting’ or taunting a patient is so unprofessional.

Why is it so difficult to accept wrongdoing when you see it.

That job has ethics and the accused know they breached those ethics.

Quit crying racism. We’ve seen whites abroad serve jail time for crimes that would’ve been waived in Nigeria, quit fooling around

If that old woman was ur mother or grandmother, you'll allow those bastards torture her because you claim she's difficult.

And FYI, all old people are difficult to deal with.

Where is the maltreatment?

I didn't see them beating her on any other form of physical abuse.

Anyone who has lived with people with dementia will know taking care of people with dementia are one of the hardest things to do, especially if such individuals are old and stubborn naturally.

Maybe the UK authorities themselves should take it upon themselves to take care of that woman individually for just a week and let's see if they won't do worse to that aged woman than those four Nigerians.



Even if you are patient and have empathy, if you meet individuals who are stubborn.. you will lose every shred of patience and empathy in you and if you are not careful you might physically abuse the patient but from that video there's no form of physical abuse.


Exactly.. most people haven't lived with such people...
If you have lived with a family member especially aged ones who has mental illness, I doff my hat for you cos you are doing a great job.
Aged people with mental illness are even harder to take care of than new born babies

The UK authorities themselves knows this, that's why they gave those people a very short sentence.
Care givers are trying abeg, though some of them are actually wicked but those four have done nothing wrong from that video



Some of you will just open your mouth waaaah.. you are not in those people's shoes so you don't know how hard it is.

If you have lived with aged people who have dementia and on top of that dementia they are stubborn... even you who taking care of them will lose your sanity.



This is where most of you are getting it wrong.. we are humans yes and it's mandatory of us to always be as humane as we can be but what you don't realize is there's a limit to how much everyone can stay humane before they lose their sanity, before they lose any form of empathy, kindness, love etc in them.

You see those care givers I'm ready to die on that hill with them with the video I watched.. as someone who has taken care of a family member with same illness, the only reason that kept me in check was because the said individual was a loved one.

If most of you have taken care of aged family members with mental illness, you all wouldn't be here criticizing those care givers who have done absolutely nothing wrong in that video.

I'm sure someone like Joke Silva, will have a thing or two to tell you of how hard it is to take care of such people.

You want to earn the good pay in the care industry but you don’t want to do the job. Why not resign isn’t that the honourable thing to do ?

All of you are just talking like fools... Let's start with the pillow stuff... If you observed, she dosn't look really okay more like she is mentally disturbed. The pillow stuff was a like a play to me cux she must have done or say something abusive herself, those old whites can be so manipulating with blacks (racism). With what i observed, its a hard task and they have to do it the hard way and not the wicked. You assholes, your I.Qs are so low you don't even observe the manipulation your government are doing here in Nigeria to you. Watch this video carefully. She was struggling with everything and it was hard for the caregivers to clean her up. You all should stop blabbing like you zombies. Only zombies are mumu.

Go back to read my comment, digest it then reply again.

So that the woman is difficult to deal with means the man can hit her with the pillow? Like I said in my comments it's very challenging to deal with demented grannies. Everything is a task with them. There are some forces that needs to be used to get things done around them.When doing so it needs to be moderately applied. But you shouldn't hit them.

In fact there's an avenue for them to report to their supervisors if their patients are abusive and difficult to deal with. But I guess they need the job more than the risks involved in doing the right thing.

Also you should be matured enough to know that insult isn't necessary when engaging in discussion. You can make a point without insulting others. Shut up is an insult.

Nursing a human is a calling, it’s not for everyone, but people go into it to earn money, not really to care. You see some of them in the hospital
franchasofficia:
There are more humane ways to handle the woman.


From age 80, most humans become kids and start to act like kids, and at that stage they need compassion and not cruelty.


If you are empathetic in life, no matter what, you will never maltreat anybody even when they push you to the extreme.


Empathy makes us humans.



Can you handle your own mother that way, ask yourself that.



The woman is in agony due to health challenges arising from old age, she need compassionate care and empathy to care for her. Don't support evil in the name of race.


If a caregiver treats your own aged mother that way how would you feel? Will you be happy to watch it?



If you wish to grow old, have it at the back of your mind that you might be in similar mental state like that aged woman they were rough handling. Yes some aged people are more difficult than others to care for, but if you have empathy, you will always try to treat them passionately.

There is no excuse whatsoever as you are wont to posit about what they did! None! Stop justifying wickedness! Stop making bare the intent of your heart-vile! If they are "nasty" as you claim, what stops them from quitting? is it forced labour? Must you dehumanise another because of your nonsensical excuse of government this and that-blame game! Oh it is sweet to collect the hourly pay but the work is what aches-wow! This is why the Nigerian system is the way it is when it is littered with folks like you with such mindset.
