bye there goes your career
Disgusting !!
I think this could be very serious for these two women, and based on the fact they're black, it is not impossible to think that they may receive an extremely harsh punishment, they may actually do 10 to 20 minutes in a local jail before being let out…..
The whole country is disgusted. Lock those two pieces of s*** up and make them face the same thing they did to her
There goes that criminal complexion, actin' a fool like always. 😂😂😂😂😂
Hope those two disgusting excuses for human beings get a HUGE wake up call and much needed lesson sitting in jail for a few days.
Report to State Omsbudson
These incidents are not rare. This one just happened to make it on camera.
Sad. Think of all the incidents that we DON’T KNOW about 😢
I’ve worked in EMS and in hospitals for almost a decade. This kind of disgusting behavior goes on WAAAYYY more often than you’d think. If you have a loved one in a care facility, I’d almost guarantee that something similar has happened to them, or someone they know. HOLD CARE WORKERS ACCOUNTABLE.
Years ago my MIL was a caring loving CNA in South Florida… she reported several of the nursing homes she worked at and had to quit each one.PLEASE watch over for your loved ones!
Unbeweaveable…
Typical fatherless Democrats….
😭 how disgusting and despicable!
My mom is an RN and she constantly complains about how neglectful, rude, and unprofessional the CNAs at her job can be. They stay making life harder for the nurses because they treat it like a McDonalds job. It’s sad because it could be them one day in need of care.
Anyone who abusess vonerable should be fired from there job and sent to prison for life
This is disgusting
Disgusting human beings
im a health care worker that made me throw up sorry for the language but it did that made me cry.
Up the age requirement for CNAs.
I agree this is horrible and embarrassing, they should equally talk about the state of the nursing field,extremely short staff,lack of supplies etc.If they truly cared they would not state regulate 20 to one ratio.Adress the whole.
I hope they go to jail.
This is NOT a rare occurrence, its just not always on film. I want to take a frying pan to that face of hers

LOL… The censors keep deleting my comments…
let them rot in prison. there is no excuse for abusing an elder dementia patient. no excuse.
I've known so many people like this. They're everywhere.
Now do a search for nursing home abuse and see if you notice a pattern.
Disgusting
LIKE ME IN TAMPA BEING STALKED HARASSED ASSAULTED DEHUMANIZING BULLIED BY LAWENFORCEMENT HELPING BULLYING ME
This is what happens when you constantly reward and make excuses for a group of people for their bad behavior instead of giving them severe, lasting consequences.
Wow that’s sad. I work at a dementia caring for elderly and you really need to have compassion… I’m thankful I display that and my residents even tell me that they love me. I never understand why people with the lack of empathy decide to work at these places. There are some amazing workers out there too, just so you guys know. Pray over your grandparents to be well taken care of .
bro abuse is not what happened in that video at all.
They deserve everything they get. Thats awful.
I was a Home health aide and this is UNACCEPTABLE !
That's What Happens, When You Leave These Dumb Smart Kids,With Your Parents And Grandparents
Same type of people as always
