Join us for a screening of “Involuntary,” a short film documenting the impact of involuntary discharges on nursing home residents. Involuntary and inappropriate discharges from nursing homes have long plagued nursing home residents and their families. Residents are often uprooted from nursing facilities (their homes) and forced into new living situations that can be unsafe and life-threatening.
Consumer Voice will be hosting a virtual screening of “Involuntary,” a short film that documents the devastating impact inappropriate and illegal discharges can have on nursing home residents. For residents, advocates, and families, the short film will be all too familiar. Involuntary was an official selection at the Cleveland International Film Festival, the DC Independent Film Festival/DCIFF, and the Justice Film Festival.
It stars Jack McGee, Jessie DiFranco, and Faith Taylor. After the screening, Dana White and Chris Knoblock, the film’s directors, will join us for a discussion of the film.
