My son's patient rights and civil rights are being violated currently at Cape Coral hospital since 10/1/2021. He is being discriminated on his disability. Because he is incapacitated and nonverbal, they are ignoring patient rights. They are not communicating with me on medications being administered, procedures being done, inducing into a coma etc.. They are ignoring my rights to speak for him as a legal guarding. The hospital just simply does not recognize a legal guardian or non verbal in patient rights. Their excuse is because he is incapacitated, they do not need too. He is currently hospitalized and had put him in an induced coma without explanation to me until after the fact. It was NOT a life or death situation. When I arrived at the hospital the doctor told me when I asked a medical question "not to worry about it they are handling it" . I have over and over asked them to recognize my son's patient rights and my rights as his legal guardian and it is just ignored. I have had meetings with the hospital addressing this and it has continued to happen at at least 7 hospitalizations over the last 10 months. I feel absolutely helpless and feel as if we have absolutely no rights because my son's disability. Please tell me why we have no rights.
I want to put into action rights for nonverbal and legal guardians...and for them to be followed for individuals in my son's situation. I do not know what the point of legal guardianship is if it is not to be recognized. If we do not have patient rights like other patients who can speak and make decisions for themselves, I want someone to tell me that. Why does my son not have the same rights?
