I'm quite upset. I received a frantic phone call from my brother in law that he was asking me to call the facility because they were saying his inhaler wasn't on his medication list and he was having an asthma attack.
About 5 minutes later the night nurse came back and they had his inhaler with his name on it.
I don't know why they told him it wasn't on his list unless they didn't look, but they won't let him keep it at his bedside as a precaution.
What can be done about this? The facility is short-staffed at times and I'm also upset they thought it wasn't on his medication list when it always has been.
They have told him in the past it has to be locked up and only administered by the nurse.
That if he has an attack he just has to wait for the nurse to answer the bell or goto the hospital.
