CPS and DRHS BOTH attempted to coerce me into continuing illegal activities that were in place prior to my tenure. The Louisiana Department of Health issued a twenty-five page report of deficiencies at De Soto Regional.

This is a catastrophe that IS happening, and its only a matter of time before more and more people killed as a result.Scotthttp://sstrumello.blogspot.com/2008/02/big-pharma-deception.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
