Social services are trying to put my dad in a care home that’s just come out of special measures. There are also more than a dozen reviews from people who worked at the care home recently who are saying it is always understaffed poorly managed and unsafe!
My dad is in a wheelchair and is extremely frail he was given the last rights after admission but has rallied.
The hospital think he needs to be in a care home because they think it will be better for him to die surrounded by his things. The trouble is the LA are paying and they will only pay a set fee, which means he will be in a care home not equipped to give him the intensive care he requires.
The LA are not telling me anything because I don’t have Power of Attorney. I’m his only relative. I feel totally helpless.
