What About Tennesse Dept. of Human Services Abuse of the Elderly and Their Families?
Suppose you are aware your mind is failing, although you may not be aware of the extent of your own limitations. The state Department of Human Services (DHS) seizes you against your will and confines you to a nursing home. DHS seizes your social security checks and every possible source of income you have. You are trapped. You do even have the money to pay for a taxi ride back home. You do not know who to call for assistance; you are helpless. In all likelihood, DHS will attempt to take ownership of your house, sell it, and use the proceeds to pay for the $120/night cost of the nursing home, which you do not want.
