I know where you are coming from but come on guys, this is good news! Do you really want to have to leave a confused and frightened person in hospital on their own, however good the care might be? I am very happy that Nicci Gerrard's campaign has won widespread support and I hope that if OH has to go to hospital I can stay as long as I want with him to make sure he's ok. I am not sure why people are turning this around now and say that it means carers should be there all the time. No, it means if they want to, they can. If this was children we are talking about, there would be no question about this.
