Ratios are the most valuable asset when it comes to people caring for me.  I currently get one on one care with consumer directed care, but EVV will take that away.  There should be a premium put on ratios.  I have been in many institutions; they are bulk care.  The persons working there are there for a paycheck and not because they have an interest in my well being.  There were little protections from the people in the homes that I stayed in.  Once, I had an elderly man in a nursing home corner me in a room and offer anything I wanted if I came to his room.  No staff were around to help me.  Once a man showed up naked in my room, and it appeared to be an accident until it happened one too many times.  Every place I have been in smelled like urine and feces.  The cushions in shared rooms had stains on them and staff sprayed them with fabreeze which didn't help.  Once a violent resident backed up their wheelchair to mine and started punching me from behind.  Staff laughed and did not come to my aid instantly.  Staff had a smoking area right outside the building, so I couldn't open my window and get fresh air.  My neighbor next door smoked marijuana in his room, and the staff knew it, because I told them the smoke got in my room and they never did anything to stop it.  I don't want to go back.  I love my home.  Don't make me leave it.  My friend cares for me now, and I live with them in their home (they make me feel like it is my home too).  **I cost the state the least by being in consumer directed care.  i don't want to be in assisted living because of EVV.  I understand that noncompliance with evv will result in the "offering of other services".  I know that means institutions because there are no other options.  Please keep my ratio low and help me stay in my home.  Stop evv.
