Is anyone else getting there Benzo scrips taken away or cut down a lot recently?

[Revolution]

When my Aunt was put into a hospice-like nursing home (don't even get me started, she should've been at home with her family), they essentially stopped giving her water, as she had some trouble swallowing. 
I didn't know that at the moment, but my Aunt was obviously dying , aware, and her body was thrashing , hitting the bar of the bed with her legs, which she couldn't control. When I came in, they told me she was having a "bad day". She was suffering from Alzeimers. 
I called the nurse in to show her, asked for medication to make her more comfortable, and extra pillows for the bed, so she didn't keep hitting herself. I was told (rightly so), that they were out of pillows!!! and she was not scheduled for more medication for another 4 hours. As I went to buy pillows, I called my cousin to let him know what was going on with his mother, and she was finally given relief 2 hours later. 
What I saw her suffer through the next three days, I won't describe, but I will tell you we are more humane to our animals. I think even in hospice care, people are denied the right to pain and anxiety relief. 
This country doesn't have its priorities straight.
