My father is in a rehab center in Port Charlotte, FL, where he was being rehabilitated for hip surgery. Recently, he fell and sustained injuries, and the facility is now discussing hospice care. They are trying to get him to sign release papers for fault and have denied me access to visit him multiple times, citing security issues and my father's mental state.

I texted my manager for less hours as my dog is in pain and requires care, but she ignored my text and told my coworker that I am trying to “live off” unemployment money. I am a full-time student and have documents proving my dog's condition. Is what my manager said considered defamation/libel?
