On Tuesday at 11 am, a 87-year-old resident of Glenwood Gardens collapsed at the facility while a staff member called 911 but refused to give the woman CPR. The elder woman was a resident at a Bakersfield retirement facility, and was denied CPR because it was against the facilities rules. Imagine your own grandmother or grandfather denied CPR — I can only image what it would be like to make that decision, but at the end of the day… isn’t life more important? The dispatcher is heard begging one of the nurses for help but they all refused. Hear the chilling footage of the sad phone called below.
