The owner of God's Pleasure Day and Night Care Giving Service, Hazel Clinton is refuting claims of abuse at her home. In an interview with TV6'S Elizabeth Williams at the home in Rockly Vale Scarborough, Ms. Clinton sought to explain the situation.
00:00Caregiver at the God's Pleasure Day and Night Caregiving Service, Laverne Stewart-Charles denied claims of abuse at the God's Pleasure Day and Night Caregiving Service.
00:11In fact, she said it appears 83-year-old former resident of the home, Joan James, felt entitled.
00:18She's always been a very fussy person. I guess she's probably an American citizen and she feels so entitled.
00:25So you will carry her to the clinic and if I put another patient's name in front of her, she will be... she does groundwork for you.
00:32But are there instances of abuse at this home?
00:34Abuse? What type of abuse would you be speaking about? Because there's no kind of abuse in this home at all.
00:39Owner of the home, Hazel Clinton, also denied abuse claims at her elderly home.
00:45Ms. Clinton admitted, however, complaints were received about the previous caregiver who has since been removed.
00:52Has persons, in terms of caregivers at this home, been abusive to clients here, residents here?
00:59Um, what's her name? That particular nurse is the only one, right, that we have complained about.
01:09And I'm saying she is gone. She is not here. Right? As soon as I hear something, I act on it one time.
01:18However, Roxanne Hunt, who is now the caregiver of Ms. James and a former caregiver at the same home, recalled to TV6 News one instance when efforts were made to prevent Ms. James from leaving the home as the gate was blocked.
01:33The registered nurse had a conversation with Ms. James like a week or two before when one of her nephews came and they did the same thing.
01:41They never allowed him to see his aunt. They blocked the gate and he couldn't come in.
01:46So other people was trying before I tried to get her to come out of there.
