We found out yesterday that he has pneumonia. Once I found that out I went and got him from that ER. Today we find out he’s negative for covid. Am I overreacting for wanting to contact administrators for possibly causing harm to my father? He had BACTERIAL pneumonia and they forced 2 masks on him while short of breath. I’m more livid than before knowing he doesn’t have Covid.

This is golden advice!
For a crayon eater, you give better advice than some JDs I have known
If you are still around, a few questions:
Does the journal entry have to be notarized?
What rule of the court requires the judge to read it? (not disagreeing, just asking)
Does "he has to read it" mean he has to accept it as evidence into the record?
thx
I think it is generally a good strategy -- keep records and make "contemporaneous" notes about those records.
In this case, it would be the father filing the lawsuit (if he chooses). If the son or anyone else keeps the records and notes, it could probably be entered into evidence (with the court clerk), but should (must?) be filed with an affidavit -- similar to what you propose, but more "legal."
And then the maker of those records would be a witness, and subject to cross-examination, but it would be important evidence for a jury.
Has to be done by the Rules of Evidence, though.
Sorry for just getting around to responses. I really appreciate your advice throughout these posts! My main goal is to not have this happen some other unsuspecting family. I still don’t know the best way to approach that. The sense I’m getting is to contact a lawyer and see if they can help. I will start documenting all that I can. Thank you again!
Call an attorney before contacting Hospital Admin. For SURE.
lol!!! You are silly!!!
