My son died there in2015 at Lois DeBerry. He had been on dialysis for type 2 diabetes. They had messed up his dialysis(as they had done several times before) . He had gotten an infection after the dialysis was done incorrectly. He became swollen and unable to keep anything he trye to eat down and unable to stand up without support. Before when this would happen, they knew he must be taken to General Hospital for corrective treatment. There were NO medical staff at Lous Deberry Special Needs Facility. I spoke with my son several times the week before he passed away, and for the last time, 3 days before he passed. He told me what he was going through and I assured him that they would take him to General for treatment. He was only taken to General 3 days later when he had become unresponsive. Before this dialysis mess up two weeks before he had been doing well.+0 They watch him go into unresponsive state before having him taken to General to be pronounced dead. He and his cellmates had tried to get him taken to General until he became unresponsive. This facility have little or no qualified medical staff, so they just let good people die.
