So first off I would like to let you guys know that I am not a nurse. I joined to see if I can get help for my mom . For years she worked hard and very effectively as a LPN , about 5 years ago she retired after 20 some odd years as a nurse. She fed 4 kids and even one of us decided to follow in her footsteps (my sister is know an RN) . After retirement we thought she was all set and ready to live life . Unfortunately some bad turn of events on her ex employers part messed with her retirement funds. I dont know all the details but all together about 15 nurses were hit with something about the job not matching their retirement funds. Im not an articulate person nor am I a writer by any means, but I know that my mom doesn't deserve this. Worse off every Dr visit cost her an arm and a leg , and she is only getting about 1200 a month , I would think that this isn't the way to treat someone who was a public servant for years. My hands are tied because I dont know were to turn for help , or be pointed in the right direction. So I figured I would turn to her peers , maybe someone had also had this happen to them as well . I m just desperate to find a way to help my mom in her golden years. Just need to be pointed to the direction of who might be able to show me what I missed so that my mom can retire the right way. Thi is a very broad issue and im sorry I dont have much more to go with , but maybe its enough info for someone to help . THank you in advanced. I just dont feel this is the way to treat people who helped people for a good portion of their lives as a career.
