Red flashlights can help. I’ve done nightly checks on SUD patients. Although, usually their roommates will say something before you get a chance to find out.
You think they care that much? My time in a place with the policy had a flashlight shined in my face every time, because they were all too rushed to aim it properly.
No, but it’s certainly possible to check on people and be considerate as well. I’m aware most are unfortunately not. Sorry you were a victim of a failed system.
Oh it absolutely is, and I appreciate the support. I think it’s a combination of being understaffed and being rushed to finish their route only to start it again.

Does it mention using a flashlight? I just read they’re supposed to check that she’s breathing.

Hopefully not in their face. You can use a flashlight to illuminate an area without directly pointing it at something.

Understaffing and poor management are tragically endemic problems in the mental health field.
It truly is, and I feel it every day.
