Assault on a Handicapped

Excerpts from a letter to Josh and Roy.

The essential elements of a complaint here are with the elements of criminal activity. Four areas of focus and more. First, the discharge planning/case management meeting on the day of discharge had elements of the flagrant disregard of the laws pertaining to the inclusion of family and the request in hand the hospital had to postpone the discharge. Second, the patient right to refuse and right to informed consent. Third, the laws regarding assisted suicide in this state is under consideration but not passed. Fourth, there are here elements of assault on a handicapped and battery, as found under

North Carolina General Statutes. The fifth element is failure to perform duties as a mandated reporter in the State of North Carolina. The sixth element is the misrepresentation of her health by the medical and psychiatric treatment teams to family. Lastly, the rights of family members are being misapplied in this case as evidenced by acts of medical professionals and other regulatory and quality assurance bodies

.

On July 29, 2024, Leslie from the Wake Medical Hospital called my brother Adri Olav, at 11:42 AM. It was later ascertained the possibility of the call was for discharge planning. No prior notice in the preceding 5 calendar days was given to Adri (upon information and belief based on a direct call with him subsequently). Adri did not speak with the caller as he was at work and could not take personal calls especially not knowing the nature of the call in advance. In subsequent conversations with Adri, he stated he was against the administration of psychiatric drugs to my mom citing recent side

affect he experienced with a medication for his leg citing “the those medications are junk and they all have side affects ....... I threw a whole bottle of medication my doctor gave for me because of the side effects”. On the same day, around the same time, a telephone call was made to Edw Olav, while he was in the skies delivering a plane to Oakland, California. No prior notice of the call was provided to him (upon information and belief via direct communications with him subsequently). He spoke with the caller and adamantly stated he did not want his mom on psychiatric medications. My youngest brother Jor Loz mentioned the fact he had a meeting with case management through text messages on Saturday,

two days before the meeting. A reasonable person can conclude a case management or discharge meeting was scheduled on Friday or Thursday, yet no Wake Medical Health Personnel performed their duties of serving notice on all parties, as I was too not notified of any meeting on that day. To the contrary, the hospital was in receipt of appeal correspondence for any discharge on the same day, July 29, 2024, but they continued the discharge regardless of having such notice of appeal. In this case, the patient has 7 children with whom are in contact with her and vested in her care. Here, the hospital

flagrantly went against public policy to not allowed to be caused the participation of all family members in the treatment process to include discharge planning. The did not use at any time the Adult Family Team Meeting Process. This is particularly important because I signed her into the hospital and it listed the patient has Altered Mental Status, and it appears in her medical records she has dementia. Given she does not have any filed legal documents to assist in the decisions making process, by law all family members are to be included in all aspects of her medical and psychiatric care.

Here, the doctors, the primary medical and the secondary psychiatric doctors did not get informed consent. To highlight such, on the preceding Friday before discharge, my mom “had a fit” when she realized the hospital was administering psychiatric medications. My mom clearly objected to the administration of psychiatric medication because, as she stated, “that damaged my liver”. Given none of her Adult children filed any documents with the courts to secure legal custody and legally have the right to chose or compel my mom to submit to psychiatric care, then, it was the duty to honor her right to refuse care. And, then the only way to administer psychiatric medication was through petitioning the courts. Here, neither family or the medical and psychiatric teams sought the legal right to administer psychiatric medications. Medical personnel to include the primary doctor were informed multiple times that the family “is divided on the administration of a psychiatric treatment plan”. That includes meeting with medical personnel on the first day my mom arrived on the hospital floor. It is the law and public policy that a patient has the right to refuse care. The next step in that scenario is to

either seek court orders or honor the refusal of the patient. From January 2024 until the July 2024, my mom was never fully assessed to determine her GAF and level of comprehension and ability to consent. Also, consistently she was able to say her name, knew she was in the hospital because she was sick, identified her children, knew her date of birth, and other elements like articulating “her skin was burning”. Those acts alone show limited consent needed to be honored especially when she did things like complain about the quality of food and have her menu changed [nope she did not know who was

president or what year it was, considering she had just suffered a decompenstation, but she was able to direct care in other essential matters, like letting staff know when and how they needed to administer lactulose and thyroid medication, and when she had to go to the bathroom, no evidence of MR, or DD, etc.]. Remembering this, it was the administration of medications by family members, not prescribed to her, that caused her to decompensate while at the home of Eve Loz. From May 2024 to the early days of July 2024, she was at the home of Rei Ola and was not exhibiting in any capacity psychiatric symptoms inconsistent with her medical state and not at the severe level of psychosis that was evident upon arrival by ambulance to Western Wake Medical Hospital [she spent her time sitting on the recliner, watching TV and drawing without a problem in my home].

In the State of North Carolina, assisted suicide is against the law, while the legislature is considering the measure during this legislative session.1 Three or more preceding attempts failed to make it into law in North Carolina. Legally, the treatment team had no support under the law to administer medications knowing it will kill my mom. The majority of family cannot “vote” on the administration of psychiatric medication when the known result is death for my mom [the next level of liver failure is death as readily known in the medical profession]. The psychiatric and medical treatment team cannot administer psychiatric medications, dope her up, knowing that upon admission that the blood lab resulted showed after the administration of such her ammonia levels reached deadly levels while when she arrived in the hospital via ambulance that level was only about two points from the upper limit; the psychiatric medications was causing the spiral towards death as evidenced in hospital records.

A person commits an aggravated assault or assault and battery upon an individual with a disability if, in the course of the assault or assault and battery, that person does any of the following: (1)Uses a deadly weapon or other means of force likely to inflict serious injury or serious damage to an individual with a disability. Here, the physician knew or should have known they were engaging in criminal conduct via the administration of psychiatric medications against the will of the patient and without any legal documents to support such administration and it was in fact causing serious damage to her.

On Friday morning preceding the discharged, the treatment team to include the assigned RN, April, were notified directly that the reason my mom decompenstated was the administration of medications not prescribed or monitored directly to my mom, by other family members to include Gabepentin. Licensed physicians and nurses in the State of North Carolina are mandated reporters. 2 1Spurred by Maynard's decision and the resulting publicity, North Carolina legislators introduced a death with dignity bill for the first time in 2015. That bill and others introduced in 2017, 2019, and 2021 failed to pass. Now in the 2023-2024 legislative session, the General Assembly is considering HB877, another bill related to aid in dying. This legislation would require the North Carolina Institute of Medicine to study the legalization of medical aid in dying in the state.

Upon information and belief, none of the mandated reporters on the Western Wake Medical Treatment Team performed their duty. It was the administration of medications not prescribed or monitored by a licensed physician that caused her to evidence severe psychiatric decompensation. And, once that administration stopped, she quickly returned to baseline.

The contention between my person and the family members that voted for the administration of  psychiatric medications was inflamed by the misrepresentation of clinical staff. They, upon information and belief, based on interviews and text messages with Jor Loz, son, “they said she is doing fine ....... her mel scores are great [as evidenced in text messages and conversations]”. While the treatment team said she was fine, her ammonia levels were in fact higher than those found in

February, 2024, once then liver cirrhosis changed to liver failure due to the administration of Invega and not checking liver levels after administration in January 2024. Hence, in February, she evidenced an ammonia level of 84 that severely reduced mental clarity. Here, medical records show that while the treatment team was articulating to family “she is fine”, at least two lab results showed the contrary; the path to death began under the care of Western Wake Medical Clinical Staff. The was the crust of severe in fighting among family members.

North Carolina Common Law and Statutory Law all encapsulate the rights of Adult Children to step in and be a part of the treatment process once a parent is incapacitated. This is our legal rights, and all of my mom’s children have the equal unfettered right to be included in all of the treatment process and decision making process. Hospital policy and practices invalidate those legal rights. And, that includes CMS medicare personnel whom stated, “we are doing a QA, but you cannot be informed of the results [in violation of public policy and law]”.

Please help and intervene in this situation. My mom may pass due to continued medical malpractice.

Thank you. Please add this to any complaints and correspondence you already received. Thank you.
