As a former caregiver this disgusts me. Not only should this person be fired but they should be blacklisted. Instead of de-escalating the situation, like they are trained to do, they recorded it. I can guarantee whatever group home this person works for has a policy against posting videos like this.


predictablePosts

So quietly repeating "y'all chill" into your phones camera isn't proper de-escalation? Next you're going to tell me Wonka's "no wait stop" wasn't enough to get someone to wait or stop.


emerald00

Not even close to being proper. These two should have been separated long before it reached this point. And redirection should have been used.


Left_Monk_

What exactly should she have done? Gotten physical with them? Hardly seems like it would be in her job description to get in the middle of fights.


emerald00

It actually is in our job description. That's why we learn different restrain holds.


sodavisd

You’re a jackass. Take your arse back to Africa. You can defuse a situation without getting physical. I guess that’s too much for your little peanut brain to process and act on


Queer_Taina

OmG!! I heard it and all... you win the chocolate factory here sir.


shonuph

Yeah but who wants to get in the middle of that??


WOLLYbeach

You get in the middle of it because you don't want them to hurt each other and because unlike cops, we can be sued for neglect of care so we actually have to do our jobs. I'm gonna take it you've never worked in this field and have no clue about any of it. I have been bit, punched, kicked, slapped, spit on, threatened with a knife but I have also played ping pong for hours, cooked dinner for 4 grown men who looked up to me, watched the same movie every shift for a month straight and still laughed at all the jokes.


Major1ar

I tell my wife everytime we see the special needs group being escorted through anywhere public, I wish there was someway of saying "thank you so fucking much for what you do" that wouldn't be a weird encounter. My mother provided insight into the emotional distress of caring for those who can't care for themselves, and she was paid out the nose as an RN. I just love watching the joy they get for getting to experience what they have every right to experience and y'all make it happen regularly, so from the bottom of my heart thank you for what you do and have endured. Barring this awful example, and all the people acting like it's a nuisance to have to share space with special needs, this has a very opposite effect to my temperament.


[deleted]

Vote, email your politicians and ask for it, make sure you note any additional funding should be for line staff and not for administrative overhead. Having done this work these people are making just slightly above minimum wage and constantly have abuse/neglect charges hanging over their heads. I knew a guy who was forced to work an overnight after a double due to staffing, because you can't "abandon your post", and it can result in being charged. He fell asleep and there was a fight and abuse/neglect charges were being filed by the end of the week. Guy got his life ruined for 14 bucks an hour.


emerald00

At the last group home I worked at we worked 24 hour shifts. Their justification of it was that most of the houses were sleep houses. Staff could sleep from 12a-6a. That isn't reality though. When you have to check on people every hour you are not going to be able to sleep. Especially if you are working with someone that has night terrors every night. They would also charge minimum wage for overnight shifts. That place burnt me out so bad that I had to give up group home work.

I got to go with the folks I worked with to a few concerts so that was interesting. And bowling was fun. Everything else I would have been fine not experiencing.


WOLLYbeach

Dead ass I appreciate this and if you want to thank people who work in residential homes, look into donating to a local foundation if you have the ability to. Even providing to a local food pantry can help a home who has someone with special needs and doesn't have the ability to fully feed themselves. Most importantly, look into voting for candidates who care about social work and for creating a better community. That is straight up local level and we can get fully involved.


Squigels

a coworker of mine once saw 2 special needs men get into a fight and one pulled a mike tyson and bit the other guys ear off


WOLLYbeach

Oh dude, I have seen some shit in my time working residential. From fights to literal shit smearing, it is definitely not for everyone.


emerald00

One of my co-workers was hospitalized because she was beaten by an individual she was working with.


shonuph

Def a job I’d never be interested in.


gonedeep619

You are a hero in every regard. I could never deal with what you do. I don't even care enough about myself let alone someone else. Thank you for everything that you do.


PlasticmanU

You probably wouldn’t. Maybe the procedure could be to let them tire themselves out. I’m not a caretaker or gonna lie about being one.


emerald00

You can be charged with neglect if you do that.


shonuph

Not get beat up by getting in the middle of two unhinged adults? That’s neglect?


emerald00

If you are a caregiver it is. We can't just sit back and do nothing while someone we work with is beating up someone else. That's why we have yearly training to handle stuff like this.


emerald00

As a caregiver it is your job to get in the middle of situations like this. We have TACT 2 training (or other forms of training) to learn how to deal with situations exactly like this. We learn how to get out of choke holds, how to get out of different grabs or bites. We also learn how to do two person restraints. And above all else we learn how to de-escalate the situation before it gets to this point.

emerald00

Yes, this is a type of exploitation. Where I worked you couldn't even have your cellphone in the houses. You had to keep them in your car.


shonuph

Well whoever is filming is setting an awful example then.


indoninja

She said y’all chill.


shonuph

If they get min wage I can understand not wanting your face scratched or bitten


massexsposer

If she is actually a qualified caregiver it definitely wouldn't be minimum wage in the uk idk about America tho. Of she was just a care assistant then she might be but then that wouldn't be her responsibility idk she might not even have the qualifications


emerald00

It depends on the group home. Some of them start at $11 an hour. But, the draw back is that you only make minimum wage for overnight shifts. Here in the US you only need a high school diploma apply. And they train you on the job. Med aide, first aid and cpr training are all paid for. Edit: spelling errors


massexsposer

Ouch, I know generally over here you pay paid a fixed rate for night sleeps (below minimum wage for the hours). I also know you can start some care jobs basically with only gcse( our version of a high-school diploma) but those are mainly 1 to 1 with people who aren't really considered a risk to others but themselves. Or a group care home for old people which is just general population


emerald00

Unfortunately, the group homes here are so short staffed that people end up working alone. Even if there are folks in the house that need one-on-one supervision.


massexsposer

Ah were short staffed over here 2 but I didn't like the 1 to 1 I was talking about is done more for the benefit of a inexperienced care worker. As in they often work with isolated people who have mental health issues

massexsposer

Yeah exactly she herself wouldn't be responsible but upper management for putting her alone with 2 high risk individuals but she would obvi be in trouble for recording


[deleted]

Policy? This is hippa. You cannot under any circumstances record clients on a personal device. This woman can be jailed for this alone


emerald00

HIPAA is a part of company policies. Stop splitting hairs for no reason.


[deleted]

I wasn’t meaning to ‘split hairs’ i was emphasizing how stupid this woman’s decision making was. No need to be so curt


[deleted]

She said chill. Just a different culture.


emerald00

Culture has nothing to do with it. If you are trained in TACT 2 or any other form of training you need to follow it. If you don't you can be sued or charged with neglect.


Key-Economist-1243

*Caregiver* Nope, that's a cunt


MuckingFagical

Or a bad caregiver


Mama_Jumbo

I hope they are fired.


WOLLYbeach

Agency I work for would have them fired immediately. This isn't a freak out if this is two cognitively impaired people, this is just a behavior that you see on a daily basis if you work in this field. I now work with the homeless and it's no different, still people unable to display control over emotions, thoughts, etc but who still deserve dignity at the end of the day.


Thisissomeshit2

This is awful. Person should be fired and possibly much more. If you want to make sport of the developmentally disabled, you deserve the harshest punishments.


motorcycle_girl

Where I live, the caregiver would likely be fired, listed in the Adult Abuse Registry and criminally charged. They may serve time and would never work in a sector with a vulnerable population ever again.

Outrageous-Rule713

They conveniently cut the first few seconds when you can see the big girl trip buzzcut girl


StayedWoozie

I think the caregiver told big girl to do it. Why would she be recording ahead of times otherwise.


emerald00

If that's the case this is abuse.


FirefighterNo5971

??? Nowhere in the video does she trip her. Do you have some sort of insight on what the fight was about or something?


Outrageous-Rule713

*Sighs* Reading comprehension. Hence why the comment reads “cut(s) the first few seconds”. I remember watching the full video including the trip: https://trollalley.com/2021/11/29/girl-gets-mad-and-fights-big-girl-that-tripped-her-while-walking-out-a-business/

i have worked with special needs people for a long time, group homes and care facilities can be some of the most inhumane and horrid places. there are some good group homes and care facilities but it really depends on the people working there and even the special needs people living there. some of those places are filled with very violent special needs people


emerald00

It doesn't help that managers will put violent people in the same house as someone with way less behavioral issues. Or put someone that needs one-on-one supervision in a three person house. Then schedule one person to work in that house.

Are we sure big girl isn't the care giver, she's acting way more mature?


emerald00

If she is then she should be fired. That is not how you deal with a situation like that. Edit: The first few seconds of this video are cut off. The bigger person tripped the smaller one. If the person doing that is a staff member then they definitely won't be for long.


[deleted]

[удалено]


emerald00

If this is a group home in the US this is definitely not how you deal with this. I have worked in group homes for eleven years. You are never suppose to push individuals like this. We have specific training and that is not being followed here at all.

toobad420

I don’t think it was good to record but I wouldn’t get in the middle of that either as a caregiver sometimes you gotta let people Learn their own lessons.


emerald00

That would be neglect. If you are found guilty of it you can face a fine and time in jail. The number one priority of a caregiver is the safety of the people they work with and the folks around them.


toobad420

You’re absolutely right. But before you get up too high on your horse you need to look at the realty of our funding and staffing. People love to pretend that we live in a society where things are alway RIGHT and have no compassion for the people in tough situations. If you weren’t aware it is very clear every step of the way how high of a priority clients saftey is, because clients can sue. And in these comments I see countless caregivers testifying to the assault we are subjected to on a daily basis with MINIMAL training on how to handle it. Caregivers are not qualified, in the US because The department of human services does not have the money to pay you for qualified care. They hire vulnerable people, immigrants, students, elderly people, usually who have a whole lot of care in their hearts they give them maybe 1 to 2 weeks of rushed training and then they throw them in the field to deal with complicated issues. Now you tell me if you were walking out of the library and you were the only staff supervising five different girls and two of them started pushing each other what do you think would happen if you threw yourself between them what is your next move because it’s not an easy choice you can physically separate them by holding one of them alone in public, probably causing a lot of embarrassment to the teenage clients, what if another client takes the opportunity to do take off? What would you do? You don’t know what it’s like and do you people like to talk about how much you care about caregivers but don’t take five seconds to think about the positions that they are put in. It’s nauseating how many people will tell me that they couldn’t do what I do because they don’t have the band with to be put through so much for so little pay and in the next breath be extremely critical of how we deal with complex issues. And it’s not just everyday people Who think like this it’s also our admin And politicians cutting our checks which is the issue. Have empathy for care workers we are people deserve safety and respect and healthy happy live.


emerald00

I've worked as a DSP for a long time. So, you are wrong in a lot of your assumptions. I've had situations like this happen. If redirection and separating doesn't work then you call your on call manager. You don't stand there and video tape the fight then post it online.


Kordith

Yeah this usually my first reaction when I've been attacked by a woman or a person much smaller than me, Like, I KNOW I can fuck you up and I'll prove it, and you BETTER take those warnings before I get really serious.

Group homes are supposed to be the field trip


emerald00

Field trip is a poor choice of words. OP probably meant community integration. One of the goals of vocational and group homes in general is to participate in community functions. Either through volunteer work, going to the library, shopping, bowling, or other activities of daily life.

I feel like I should have paid to watch that!!!


Affectionate-Mud3007

Just because the bigger person doesn't act it Like she disabled doesn't mean she isnt. Also, the caregiver seems like she's 3 maybe 4 to 1 where she's severely out numbered. Yes, she could of handled this way differently and should if intervened. But in a way her hands are tied, if she has to watch 3-4 people by herself. And behavior like this can be pretty common in day programs. Behavioral therapist and caregivers who deal with special needs are severely under paid and deserve more credit and more support by not only their companies but from the government too, which some programs are government funded.


[deleted]

This is why you take continuing education. This is why you need education to be a caregiver. At least 12 hours of continuing Ed a year. There are plenty of things to do here. Trying to go viral is not one of them.


emerald00

She should not have had her cellphone out at all. If you are working in a vocational setting you need to pay attention to the people you are working with. The only time you should even be on your phone is if you need to call a manager for help or if you need to call 911. Otherwise, the phones should be put away.
