Is this a crime I can report? Could I report him for medical neglect?
Edit: She was sick with pneumonia, and I think covid, and was mostly alright when she was taken to the hospital when she was driving erratically. She had very good days at the nursing home rehab, then got taken to the hospital when her condition got worse. My dad reported to me that he told the hospital to not treat her for her illness.
There’s not a lot to go on here, so it really, really depends. Sometimes there’s an advanced directive or living will in place, and a person has already made it known that there are certain treatments that they don’t want, esp. if they’re not in a position to make the decision for themselves.
And, BTW, everyone should do this.
Unless you’re on really poor terms with your father, I’d suggest talking to him about this first.
