Employees take dignity away from residents.

The Fort Mill Times had an article about disgusting abuse of residents' rights including privacy and dignity.  Nursing home employees were taking pictures of residents on their cell phones attached songs with sexual lyrics and circulated them to other employees.  The nursing home in Lexington has been cited by state officials but no arrests have been made yet.   i do not understand how this could happen.  don't the employees have any shame at all.  

A citation issued against Bluegrass Care and Rehabilitation Center stated there was no indication the for-profit nursing home had trained staffers that using residents' pictures and/or recordings of a sexually exploitative nature were a form of abuse.  Do you really need to train them on something as simple as that.  Do they need training on simple respect and dignity.  This is outrageous.
