If you want to hasten your life do not agree to DNRs.

On Janaury 29 2014 I received a letter from VCH saying that I can't visit Randy who is a quad and can't talk for three months because of my disrespectful conduct.  What is MY disrespectful conduct and what has that got to do with seeing Randy.  I am his only advocate and friend and VCH has this idea to punish him like in a third world so I do not say anything.  GPC is suppose to be a residential community it is not acute care or intensive care so disrespectful conduct would have a different meaning.  For example, what your behavior is in your church is different than your behavior in your home. At GPC the method of living is the Eden principle where it is a home-like atmosphere based on being spontaneous and showing emotion.

From October 14 2013 Randy was in a private room with me having very very little access to anyone as a security guard was posted outside and I was not allowed to talk to anyone.  So why didn't they leave me there with Randy.  Why did they move him to a Ward where the phantoms that are afraid of me are stationed.  There is more to this than just my questionable disrespectful conduct.  During the time from October 14 2013 to January 29 2014 I know of no incident that would be described as disrespectful or any mention as such..

The truth is VCH does not want me to talk to anyone and tell them of my experiences of what really VCH is doing.  Think about it.  Having mostly all residents of GPC agree to a Do Not Transfer Order so that if they need acute care they in all probability will die at GPC as GPC is not equipped to handle acute emergencies.  I thought Do Not Resuscitate Orders were bad enough but coupled with Do Not Transfer it means certain death. That is what they really mean by disrespectful behavior. The want visitors classified as employees and everything I see or hear is suppose to be confidential and away from the public ear and eye.  There is in my mind no other reason for it.Most of the residents at GPC do not even know what a DNR or a DNT means. 

 Like Ro the manager told me most residents know they are going to die and they have accepted it. I do not believe her.  Ro reminds me of an angel with the keys to purgatory as that is what Dr. Tam told me GPC was.

It has been eight months since the first Full Code intervention in August 2013 stopped Randy's imminent death and Randy may live many more months or years if a DNR/DNT Orders are not forced on him without him knowing. I was told by a lawyer who deals with health care at the Bentley court case and he said that unconsented to DNRs are common in the medical community. A nurse at that hearing also told me that. It doesn't matter how old you are if you are going to cost the medical system you will be convinced that you have no quality of life so you might as well be dead. And if you won't agree they will find a way to do it anyways; they will get your relatives to agree At GPC they isolate you until you give up and die..

There has to be a public inquiry into GPC and VGH as to DNRs and resultant deaths.  There has to be stats available.  If public policy is to kill the chronic ill then we the public should know about it.

I reported this to the Public Guardian and Trustee and the Ministry of Health and nothing came of it. They must know what is going on.

Criminal Profiling by VCH

I haven't got over the criminal profiling that VCH did on me; it is the lowest sickest thing they could have done. David Ostrow and Kip Woodward should resign over this indignation.

And what about the psychologist Dr. Georgia Nemetz: saying
15.  I have been further informed by Dr. Nemetz, Romilda Ang, Tenvirezohra Batlawala, and believe to be true that, as a result of Mrs. Laferriere's actions at GPC over the last year, numerous staff at GPC are intimidated by, and scared of, Mrs. Laferriere. Over the past year Randy spent most of it at VGH so how many days did it take for these people to become afraid of me. Management isn't afraid of me so who are.  I wonder if the staff is even aware that they are being used to separate me and Randy.  I am sure they did not have a vote.

So who are these, those that are afraid of me  -- they must be phantoms .

18.  Based on my investigation, I concluded in that Mrs.. Laferriere poses a hgh risk of demonstrating affective (emotionall-based and unplanned) violence.  I further believe that her behavior constitutes bully and harassment of GPC and Vancouver Coastal Health staff.   ...increases the risk that Mrs. Laferriere will hurt someone at GPC in the future.  Really.

What are they imagining. Who is this idiot  lawyer who wrote the affidavit for, Kevin Calder, and who is the idiot lawyer Jordan J. Watson who decided these assumptions/assessment//lies were relevant.with no proof. So much for Clark Wilson the law firm for Vancouver Coastal Health.  How low can they get.

What did I do.  All I wanted was to see my husband.  Even a child would not agree to their stupid guidelines.  They would just run and see their parents.  No one would stop them; they would find a away.. But I am prevented by Amazon security bullies and staff and the law that protects us all.

VGH knows how to discredit anyone they target.  Mention the word "violent" and you are quilty of everything.  Everyone I hear of who has been banned have been accused of being violent to the point of the police charging them.  No one ever got convicted but it was a means to shut up the visitor.  As for me I was never charged.  It was I who wanted to charge VCH and their employees and security.  It is as if VCH has a menu on how to get rid of visitors. Have staff say he was physically touched ever so lightly and you are a violent person; no due process, just the word of an overworked dissatisfied scared-for-his job employee or some employee wanting to get on the good side of management.

And to think that Randy is near death and VCH has done this to me and Randy. He was imminent for death in August 2013, November 18, 2013, and December 26, 2013.  And what do they do they ban me and I am criminally profiled. WorkSafe BC  (Jackie Dulac) couldn't have agreed to this but then maybe she did.

What about Randy's quality of life.  It means nothing to VCH   VCH will stick him in a corner and ignore him until he dies.  Since Randy is immobile and can't talk or even use a call bell he can be discarded at will. They even got him hidden behind curtains.  Dr. Dunne told me that a resident's privacy (the woman next to Randy who can talk and call and for help needs her privacy and her husband seems to be there making sure she si attended to all the time) is more important than Randy's safety.

Do Not Resuscitate Directives and Do Not Transfer Orders can be placed on him by Dr. Dunne which he has done in the past without Randy's knowledge and try to prove it after Randy is dead.  A doctor's word against a dead man's word.   I still do not think it was a coincidence that Dr. Dunne was at Randy's bedside hours before he should have died. on November 18th or December 26th.  Dunne is never there is in the afternoons or early evenings.  Why was he there...just to make sure Randy was on his way.

And the hospital criminal profiling section of VCH is monitoring every single word I write to determine if I am violent or not. And they are going to sue me for harassment employees of VCH via my blog.. VGH made my life hell for going on four years and now they are going to sue  me.  I hope they have real evidence and no made-up hearsay. And the court case is done face-to-face in a real courtroom where everyone can be cross examined rather than by affidavit.

Criminal Profile

It takes  me a long long time to get angry.  And this time I am angry. The idea that Vancouver Coastal Health would have its employee do a criminal profile on me for deviating against  illogical stupid guidelines based on irational stupidity is ridiculous. Rather than do what VCH should have done in 2010 when the bullying and cruely started by VCH, the best they can do is now result to criminal profile an old woman.

 I am going to post Gavin's report on the internet as a public service. I want all of you to know what VCH is doing. You can read it and ask so what if she didn't follow the ridulous innocuous guidelines which were not written in stone;  guidelines she never agreed to in the first place. She was trespassing on government owned property to see her husband.  This is crazy.  Whose idea was it.  WorkSafe BC would never agree to this.  A undercover hospital police state targeting an innocent to make sure they have something something to justify their work.  Create a situation by tragetting an individual who only wanted to be with her husband and to make friends with the other lonely residents. Residents that no one cares to see except for their memorial service.   Security companies do it all the time and managers do it as well to cement their positions. You are taught this is university: Business 101 how to survive a job and get promoted create a situation and make yourself look good.    But I never thought it would happen in a hospital.  VCH stating that I would be further danger to staff and everyone else on all its properties.

I was told WorkSafe BC told VCH to do it.  Really. VCH is suppose to be in the health care business not in criminal profiling of its visitors, staff, contract workers, and children.. So who is next, the underpaid janitor who steals toilet paper. Or maybe Napolean Ostrow and where he gets his organs for transplants. A new industry.  BIG BROTHER HOSPITAL who isn't the government. But then they might be working together.

I would be afraid of me too not physically but because I told them I would be reporting them to the college of registered nurses for their dishnourable behavioir and acts of physical/psychological  violence against me and Randy..  That should cause some form of post traumatic stress. In my mother's day it would be called GUILT. Since reporting nurses to management does not work, then the next step is report it to the college of registered nurses and their union for disciplinary action.

As for Dr. Dunne I have registered five complaints against him and he won't be able to wiggle out of any of them. No wonder he can't concentrate in his job.  Thank god he isn't Randy's physician's anymore. Or is he.

When I was a child we would play the "mother may I pass the red chalk line" and now at 60 years later VCH has reinvented it again. They are trying to reeducation me to be a robot who sees no evil, hears no evil, and is mute.


My husband is dying and I want access to him 24/7.  VCH already took two years of our lives from us and they are intent on stealing more.  There is a legal remedy for alienation of affection and it is very tempting to start another action against VCH.

Rich people hire nurse companions for patients 24/7 so that should also extend to family members to be with a patient 24/7 as well. otherwise it is discrimination. Nurse companions are there to alert the nursing staff should their patient need attention.  And considering the understaffing of hospital personnel 24/7 criteria should be for everyone.

TRESPASS NOTIFICATION DATED JANUARY 29, 2014

Trespass Notification signed by Richard Singleton, Director, Risk Management.

I am writing this letter to inform you that your presence on or in any Vancouver Coastal Health properties will not be tolerated.

You are to refrain from entering therein or thereon and any violation of this notice may result in your immediate arrest or in a trespass warrant being sworn for your arrest and prosecution.  The total restriction will be in place for the next 90 days.  A meeting will be held with Romilda Ag and me at the end of the restriction period and the restriction will be reassessed based on you behaviour during the period of time.

If I am banned from Vancouver Coastal Health properties how can my behavior be assessed.  The statement is totally stupid.  What is VCH's Kevin Calder the investigator going to do, follow me for ninety days off site and watch me sleep..

What VCH is doing is nonsense and totally bizarre and costly.

What they are doing is imprisoning Randy for ninety days; taking his right to associate with me; not allowing me to fulfill the judiciary duties of the Representative Agreement, and othter legislation and worse not allowing me to be able to see Randy and alert staff as staff is minimal at GPC and even if they are running around they can be too busy to notice if Randy was in trouble and they could very easily overlook Randy because he cannot call out for help or even use his call bell.

By not allowing me to be with Randy GPC is putting him at significant risk of dying.  GPC are making sure that if Randy gets a high heart rate that I won't be there to get a nurse to assist and he will die like he nearly died on November 18, 2013 and December 26, 2013.

I do not know what VGH's agenda is but they sure do not care about Randy.  Randy is very fragile and can die at any time. Why should he die under these circumstances because of a criminal profile report done by Kevin Calder and VGH agrees with deny Randy by presence.

On November 14, 2013, while Dr. Dunne was telling everyone at GPC that Randy was dying he had just transferred from VGH the evening before and I was told by his VGH doctor that there was nothing wrong with him and for me not to worry.  So a few hours later Dr. Dunne was preparing a death room for Randy to die in.

He didn't die that day but on November 18, 2013, he was actively dying.

He can die at any moment and I can't be at his bedside because of this trespass order based on nothing more than my wanting to be with Randy.  How can I wanting to be with Randy translate to me being a person to be afraid of.  Staff at GPC is known to be rude and anything you say or do can be used against you. 

The court hearing is April 9 2014 and I hope that the judge sees through all the innuendo and hearsay that VCH is good at creating.

Kevin Calder and VGH

I was thinking about how far and stupid Vancouver Coastal Health would go with the criminal profile assessment did by Kevin Calder.  Over what.  I wanting to see Randy.  How stupid is VCH. What I am saying is that Vancouver Coastal Health management is flawed in that they couldn't solve a simple problem which they started in 2010. They allowed this to escalate to where it is now.  They now are wanting me to never see Randy again.  What a cruel indictment. I was told two years ago by Dr. Tang that Randy would not live for more than two years and now it is year three. So it is just a matter of time before he dies.

11.  I believe that Mrs. Laferriere is incapable of adhering to any limitations that are placed on her access to Mr. Walker or to GPC and further believe that the only tenable solution to this situation is a complete ban on Ms. Laferriere's access to Mr. Walker. 

We should all be shocked at the methods used by VCH.

Should anyone want to read this report, let me know.

Why should there be any limitations placed on Mrs. Laferriere. And what is the purpose of the limitations. VCH can do what they want just because they can.

Also, what about Mr. Walker.  his rights to access me has been denied.  He has the right to see me whenever he can and VGH has no right to create a situation where he cannot.

Death or treatment.

It is not death, it is treatment.  I sure would like to know how Dr. Dunne convinced the police of that. Dunne walks away and some cop is lead to believe that a DNR is treatment without consent rather than a sentence of death. How could that have happened.

Public Notice


NOTICE TO GVRD

Dr says he has plateaued.  However truth is his health is fragile, he can't be expected to live a long time, he should be allowed to spend his remaining time with his loved one = you. You spend time with him and talk to him and lavish attention on him. They(GPC) sure are not going to do that.  Why should this poor man be deprived of his only companion and the only person who cares for him as a family member during the short time he has left. It is inhuman to keep the two of you apart. (quote from a friend)

I need public support so please call someone. If I am being denied access while my husband it dying, it could happen to you as well. No oneshould not be prevented from being with their husband while he is hospitalized..The frivolous issues they are using are not in accordance with the principles of fundamental justice because they are arbitrary, overbroad and grossly disproportionate in its effect. I have done nothing to harm anyone. I want to see Randy as is my right and do my duty as his fiduciary.

Due Process by GPC

I was told that the lawyer for VCH is going to ask that I be banned 100% from all VCH properties.  Based on what a report written recommendation by a security guard whose report is so grossly false that it shouuld be trashed.  This report is not based on the history of what happened nor the law.  He comes across as being a forsenic criminal profiler except I am not a criminal and I resent this invasion of lies and half truths.  Like Moirs Stillwel said VCH has its own government and it can use what false they need to justify whatever they do.

The Affidavit of Dr. James Dunne is equally inconsistent and inaccurate.  During the three years he has been Randy's physician (although he has been fired, he still is) he only talked to me for a total of twenty minutes in a three year period.

During that time I sent him letters, emails and phone calls and he never answered one of them.

Paragraph 11 really was a shocker him saying that on several occasions in 2012 and 2013 I had taken Randy off ward as if I had illegally taken him. Dunne doesn't even understand that no resident is a prisoner in his care.   I have taken Randy off the ward every single day that I could from October 2011 to June 30 2013 for clsoe to two years and if he wasn't at GPC I was at his side at VGH or St. P:auls and Dunne did not know that. And he had his affidavit sworn and notarized.

Paragraph 18 is even better: Ms. Laferriere's aggressive behavior and unreasonable instructions with respect o Mr. Walker's care are interfering with my ability to make objective decisions about his care and provide the best possible care for him.  What a joke. Sounds like a cry baby.  He has never communicated with me except for the twenty minutes and the night of November 18 2013 when I asked him in front of two witnesses to take off the DNR/DNT and he refused saying it wasn't his decision to make.  Of course it wasn't his decision to make.  Any decision for any treatment has to be made by Randy or me as Randy's legal representative.And Randy is entitled to be part of a treatment.    A patient can change his mind at any time. The DNR would have been void on November 15, 2013.  VCH should fire this man and not allow him to be near Randy or any other patient.

Paragraph 12. I also want to know how he convinced the police that placing a DNR/DNT on Randy was treatment rather than an Order to hasten Randy's death. I shall ask the Police Board to clarify this.. It is very simple. Iif you do anything to cause someone's death it is some kind of murder.  It is not treatment.  Euthanasia is illegal in Canada. Assisting in a suicide is also illegal. Placing a DNR on someone which results in death is also murder.

Randy Sick

Audrey Laferriere audreyjlaferriere@gmail.com

7:54 AM (0 minutes ago)


to Romilda, Tanvirezohra
I understand Randy is feeling better today so I want to see him at the curbside at 1:30 pm.  I also want a written statement given to me of his vitals on each day from now on. I will attend at the curbside each day to get it. If I cannot see him at the crubside each day then I want access to his bedside as he may be dying as it takes only a short time for a fever to pitch and cause death.
 You have a mother in extended care, how would you feel if you couldn't see her.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I got an email from Ro Ang yesterday that said I could not see Randy at the curbside i.e. off GPC property because Randy had a temperature and she won't let Randy see me.  Randy always has a fever it is part of his base line after his accident.  I replied and said  if Randy has a fever that he can't get out of bed and be transported to the curbside (off GPC property) then I want to see him at his bedside. No response.  Dr. Dunne signs an affidavit saying Randy has plateaued and now Randy is too sick because of a low grade fever to see me.

In any event I went to the sidewalk in front of GPC with a sign that I was banned from seeing Randy who is dying by GPC because staff is afraid of me.  I was hoping that staff or someone would be a witness and tell Ro that this isn't true.

As for our friend Kevin the security guard with a title he is writing policy for VCH.his report says that he interviewed only eight people:
.
Romilda Ang, Manager George Pearson Centre
Tanvireozohra Battawala, Resident CARE COODINATOR GEORGE Person Centre
Karen Marshall, Paladin Security Officer, George Pearson Centre
Bob Van Uytfanck, Paladin Security Officer, Supervisor George Pearson Centre
Richard Singleton, Director Risk Management, Vancovuer Community
Terru Asj. :ead Cpprdomatpr. Omtegrated {rptectopm Servoces. Vancouver Copastal Health
Dr. George Nemetz, Private Psychologist, Critical Incident Stress Debrief Facilator
Sam Greenspoon, Social Worker (George Person C

Officer Marshall described Ms. Laferriere as extremely upset and observed her attempting to "hot or run over" staff with Mr. Walker's electronic wheelchair.  Clinicial staff atttempted to stop Ms. Laferriere from holding Mr. Walker's wheelchair.  This from a professional observer who should have known that I and Randy had the right to leave George Pearson Centre at anytime.  She as well as the rest of the mob assaulted me and imprisoned Randy and me.  But then Kevin's report doesn't say anything about that.

NOTE:  Randy does not have an electronic wheelchair which I agree could be used as a dangerous vehicle considering how heavy these wheelchairs are.  They twist everything.  The point is they created the situation not me.  And this whole thing has nothing to do with what happened on October 22, 2013, it has everything to do with the fact that management doesn't want me near the hospital so I can report on any medical misadventures like putinig DNRs on residents without their knowledge or reporting that the heart monitor machines were not calibrated thereby causing risk a real risk to Randy and other patients.  They want to cover up everything because he may die at anytime and GPC doesn't have the staff to monitor him continuously or even the skill as to how hat they would do if his heart rate reached over 155 again.  They are not experienced in agressive resuscitation or have cardiac drugs to lower his heart rate.  I asked that they have a nurse 24/7 with him but they refused and they also refuse to have me be at his bedside.  They are cruel and another medical adventure is waiting to happen to Randy.

It was Kevin  who put the words into Richard Singleton's letter to deny me access to Randy:

1.  all questions from Mrs. Laferriere should be directed to the Resident Care Coordinator (rather than to the nurses who nurse Randy).
2.  Two staff present when interacting with Ms. Laferriere (what a joke, suggesting that I attack the nurses)
3.  Priorize staff safety (Staff have always been safe except when they broke the law and caused violence  October 22 2013 incident wherein the staff attacked me and Randy).
4.  Call 911 or security for support as appropriate (It has always been me who phoned 911 to protect Randy's rights from unlawful confinement)
5. Specific visiting hours and he later he says I should never be allowed on VCH property so how can I visit Randy
6.  Not to go beyond Mr. Walker's rooom (considering they moved him to a ward, he doesn't have a room)
7.  Not to visit other residents or family at GPC (I have been prevented free speech and association).  There is no affidavits from any resident, family, or staff to say that they agree with this.

All these recommendations are contained in the two letters that Richard Singleton wrote me. And as soon as I learn how to scan them I will post them.

BEWARE of Kevin Calder, Respectful Behavior Cop

Vancouver Coastal Health hired Kevin Calder who enforces VCH's Respectful Workplace and; Human Rights Policy.  He is the cop who VCH listened to to have me 100% banned from going to any Vancouver Coastal Health properties and being banned from being at Randy's bedside as he is dying..

Think about it. A person whose recommendations will ban anyone from any hospital in the Vancouver Coastal Health. From now on it isn't a manager's decision, it is the decision of a paid employee who does exactly what is expected of him.

Who is this person.  A security guard cum expert basing his information on rumour behind your back which is the way VCH seems works. The accused is never involved in these discussions just the stakeholders who want to keep their jobs.

He even turned the whole situation around in that I was bullying staff.

The one thing I got from him is the Step#1 Resolution wherein it states that the parties are to have conversations to try to resolve any misunderstandings.  This never happened with me.  I was never able to talk to anyone.

His statement (inferring that I am not all-together) that my allegations that staff and Dr. Dunne are conspiring to withdraw care from Mr. Walker resulting in his death.  Dr. Dunne isn't conspiring to kill Randy, he nearly did on November 18, 2013.

If I did not attend to see Randy after being told that he was dying on November 18, 2013, and I calling 911, he would have died while staff just looked on because there was a DNR/DNT Order on Randy which Order was not consented to by Randy or me. Even the ambulance driver was pissed off as why did he have to take a DNR to VGH.  I am Randy's representative and I should know of any such order especially when Dr. Dunne was and still is of the opinion that Randy is sometimes incompetent.  If Randy is incompetent or confused I should know what Dunne is trying to do. I still do not know why Dr. Dunne is Randy's doctor because we fired him a long time ago.  If you suspected or could prove that a doctor attempted to kill you would you want him to be your doctor.

I will be doing a private prosecution against Dr. Dunne charging him with conspiracy to commit murder because that is exactly what Dr. Dunne and the staff did on November 18, 2013.  They knew Randy did not want a DNR as it was written in his medical binder and yet they did nothing to stop the process of Level 2 dying.  If a doctor kills someone without the patient's permission then it is clearly murder. A private prosecution means you do not have to get the police involved.  You have to pay for all the costs of the prosecution but that is okay,. The money will come and there is no statute of limitations.
More about Mr. Calder and his recommendations next post.
