After the Else-scandal: Danes dread for nursing home

the Case of Elses neglect in the nursing home Kongsgården has aroused the indignation of large parts of the Danish population, as the Extra Leaf has been a quick visit to Guildford town Centre in order to talk with.

the video Clip with the 90-year-old demented woman stuck in the lift has put himself on many retinas.

Community - 6. christmas. 2020 - pm. 19:00 Here is the TV2 recordings are not allowed to see

the Word 'terrible' usually comes quickly to people's lips, so that soon the name of 'Else' will be brought up, and the atmosphere will be characterised by a sudden seriousness. Or gallows humor.

Soon it is us who get stuck! joker a passing middle-aged man.

Ekstra Bladet meetings Peter Pedersen at 71, which, in spite of good mood seems upset when he talks about the video. Before he delivers his messages, leaning himself forward with a body language that makes him look like a retired boxer or bouncer rather than a retired typesetter.

- I saw the clip on the web, and keep your mouth shut. I am deeply shaken. Complete! And it is not enough just to ask the principal to go. Those who fit the old - what about them? They don't like their work, or why is it they make such as they do?

- I think it is good that they show it. I will say, I'm proud of Poul Madsen. I like him, and I think it is bravely done, now where he also could be the cannon for it.

He and his wife are, as he says himself, advanced in years, and thoughts about the nursing home begins quietly smolder in the horizon.

- When my wife says to me: please be careful when you get on the nursing home, isn't it? So I calm her always and says: Worry Eva, I'll fix them.

He chuckles a few seconds, pauses, and adds:

- But it is not certain, you can! It is, that is the problem after all! It may be the not quite right for the time, he says, pointing to his temple.

While he hopes never to end up in plejesengen.

- No! We'll get not in nursing homes - we take as a pill before! We have actually talked about, that we do together, he says and smiles warmly to the wife by his left hand.

- of Course, it is worrying. There is certainly excellent nursing home, but I don't think this is the only place where it takes place on the way here. I think it's damn not.

Shortly after take Extra Magazine Anni and Linda, the former respectively to the cleaning and office assistants at 67 and 68, both from Rødovre. Of them have pictures also made a great impression.

- I think it is good that the video has been shown. It must focus on how to treat the sick and demented people. They know not even what happened five minutes after and is completely defenseless, " says Linda continues.

- I have a mother-in-law, who is pretty demented. And there we have of course to focus on, that everything is as it should be. For it there is something cursed mess.

- No, we are not comfortable with it, if we ourselves be in nursing homes. If you become demented and can't take care of themselves, complements the Anni before Linda takes the word again and contributes to the morbid atmosphere, the new topic of conversation gets up a grey Wednesday morning at Rødovre Centrum's car park.

- No, no, there I damn sure would rather a goodbye-pill. It is not only because of the case - it has basically been my attitude always.

Extra Magazine talked also with four other danes, which for most cases is not exactly standing in line to sign up for a care home place. Here is their verdict.

On nursing home will Bjarne Le Fevre, also 'very reluctantly'.

- I think it is something nonsense, that TV2 was not allowed to show it off, and it is perfectly fine, that it was shown anyway. When the family in many years, the account is in good standing, that there is something wrong, and nothing happens, so you have necessarily to go a step further. I understand it very well, and they have my full sympathy.

- A 90-year-old cannot speak his own case. Now I am also starting to get a little home help, and I have seen how the different is. Any are good, but there are, then, no, there's not very good, and I know not where the responsibility should be placed.

Enough of those who assume them. I was even herrefrisør for many years and has been hiring a lot of people, and therefore arouses the indignation that people do not do their work properly.

Camilla is a rare time excited for the Ekstra work.

- I think it is great. With the Extra Magazine I have it's often sort of mixed, you know, says Camilla, with a smile and his youngest under his arm.

- But it is here, it makes sense that you dare to, where other tier - is it not so, ye say? she continues and laughs.

- I have also heard of other really horrible things, and I am glad that there are some examples here, so people become more careful and avoid the bad places.

- the Hidden camera I also think you should use something more here. I think that would help, also at the day-care centres.

- Why must the images be saved? Why should it not arrive, so everyone can understand that it really is real. Otherwise it just gets forgotten. I think they need to take samples in this manner, without they know it. Often! believe Kirsten.

Also for her 'nursing home' is not a nice word to think of. Thoughts on the end of the future pledging any time.

- The thought turns I away. I can only say, I hope not, I will be so sick that Else. I hope not for anyone.

the Adventures of former chief of police, Ove Spindles come cycling into the car park on Thursday at noon.

- I can't see why the pictures should not be displayed. I think it is fine, that Extra Magazine dry, he says.

Spindles trust, however, that most nursing homes in Denmark are good to expose their citizens to the same treatment.

- It is the grotesque relationship, and I hope it is not a general problem. I have, thankfully, not the impression of general. But if I even lose the top floor, so I would hope that my family makes sure that it gets a proper place in any case.
