The next gen of hospitals and nursing homes

I have a radical new idea for a new hospital/nursing home. A big problem with the current hospital/nursing home is that the patients feel like their well-being is not at their own discretion. If a nurse is mad at the patient, the patient usually just accepts the nurse’s hostility. There have been recent changes to the agreement you sign when entering the hospital that says that you are submitting to any and all procedures they want to do and THEY DON"T HAVE TO TELL YOU ABOUT IT.

My grandma and my mother passed away in the last two years. The main criticism they expressed to me while in the hospital was that they felt like they had lost all autonomy over their own life. They could not just easily leave the situation if staff pursued an unwanted procedure or if a nurse acted hostile.

The new hospital/nursing home would be a trailer park and also would have permanent buildings. So each patient has the option to bring in their own personal trailer that they own, so the nurses and staff will come into the patient’s trailer to administer care.

Multiple types of care systems will operate in different buildings on the same site. For instance modern western petroleum-based medical care will have it’s own building. Naturopaths will have their own building. Acupuncture, TCM, Ayurveda, Reiki as well. They can all have their own offices. There can be different providers for the same style as well. There can be several companies that do western medical style and several that do naturopathy, etc.

Patients can change the type of care they receive at any moment. If they don’t like western petroleum-based medicine, they can switch to the naturopaths right away via their phone.

If they don’t want to have any further person enter their trailer, well that is their right too. And yes they will probably eventually die, but they also have a right to death on their terms.

Oh and the food that hospitals serve is complete garbage. They fed my mom chocolate ensure drink for 3 meals a day, multiple days and then the nurses couldn’t figure out why her heart was racing (NONSTOP CHOCOLATE!). There should be space in the hospital and/or nursing home complex for different providers of food, all separate businesses of course.

(Edit) For the areas where the folks absolutely hate trailer parks, well the center of the land could be a govt owned building that houses all the patients. So the medical providers would come into the building to provide care, but they don’t own the building, and if a patient wants to block a particular medical company from stepping foot in their room, they can do so.

A very bold and innovative approach to healthcare I wonder how the medical center that is to be built by the end of 2026 will approach internal medicine?

Thank you Martin!

I hope the LL medical center will try a new approach, but unfortunately, I think we would have seen some mention of it if they were, because it would be a lot of work.

Based on my experience in the medical world, LL will probably replicate whatever system is common in that region. They will probably have to recruit med workers from Croatia or Serbia to work there, and so I’m guessing they would utilize whatever credentialing system is in use in those countries. Unfortunately those 2 countries are probably heavily influenced by western medicine, but they probably also still utilize some methods that were traditionally used in that region.

It is possible to diverge from the normal western medicine if there is motivation to!

Very easily possible! If LL or any new country utilizes this new approach to hospitals and nursing homes, there is built-in space for new methodologies to grow and spread to common use based on what works best for our loved ones. They would have to be incredibly stubborn to not start using this type of system.

One thing I saw in my many years of govt work was that people love to copy-and-paste. I was part of a brand new EMS system that got started up in a county and the higher-ups just copy-and-pasted all the protocols from other EMS depts into ours. Then I started seeing evidence of copy-and-paste in all other sorts of govt functions. New countries must resist the urge to copy-and-paste!

Murf have you heard of ALEC (American Legislative Exchange Council)? Their exclusive job is to have each state copy and paste laws to make them “uniform” in all states that’s how child support and other laws that aren’t dictated at the federal become copy and pasted is this organization right here! You are spot on this issue and the UN and EU, et al do it on an international level we must resist this urge!

I haven’t heard of ALEC but I’m immediately very suspicious of them. And the UN is one of the sleaziest organizations masquerading as the uniter of humanity.

You are right to be suspicious this is one of those issues that is very thorny. What I mean by that is in order to be part of the “club” of “legitimately recognized” nation-states you have to be a member of the UN that is total bs since Switzerland wasn’t a UN member until 2002 yet no one would argue that Switzerland wasn’t a “recognized” country until 2002 the issue at heart is how to juggle between “legitimacy” and standing up for core libertarian principles that are contrary to how things operate today. I could go into more detail in a separate thread and will post that in a day or so!

Ah ok, I was not thinking in that direction. Have you read about the Minerva/Tonga event?

This is one of many reasons why I believe a country is not a country without citizens willing to fight and die for their land.

Yes I have heard of that event before and yes I will say if no one wants to fight to defend their land then it is a futile purpose to try and start a project of that type.
