A 75-year-old woman went to the doctor for her annual check-up.
The doctor told her she needed more physical activity and recommended that she have sex three times a week.
She said to her doctor, "Please, tell my husband."
The doctor went out to the waiting room and told her husband that his wife needed to have sex three times a week.
The woman's 80-year-old husband replied, " Which days?"

I was at a facility that was not following state and federal guidelines. My work as a clinical pharmacy coordinator for 20 years for my State enabled me to report all the regulations not being met to the State Dept of Public Health. Result: state inspectors were at the facility, AND federal inspectors showed up. The facility was cited for non-compliance by Public Health and has 45-days to make corrections. They will be resurveyed after a plan of correcttions is submitted. The "system" works if you are able to tell them what regulations are not being followed---it helps the surveyors know what to look for.
Contact either the Ombudsman or your State's Licensing and Certification program. Look in the phone book. Also, those two agencies (Ombudsman is a non-profit) should have a sign posted in the nursing home with their phone numbers.
Do you have an Ombudsman in your county? They are a non-profit organization that visits people in nursing homes to check on their well being. There should be a sign at the nursing home listing their phone number. Also, at the nursing home, there should be a sign that lists the State's licensing and certification program that oversees nursing homes and approves there licenses.
I've spent my morning trying to find someone to assist in getting rid of the bad 3rd shift nurses and Jackson Purchase hospital in Mayfield, KY. When I say bad, I mean those that torment the sick. Pat Kamuda
