My mum went into a nursing home the week before Xmas to be assessed due to her being violent which was bad enough but ALL her belongings have gone missing apart from the clothes she stands in and a shoe. Even her new £400 spectacles have gone and her Xmas present which I only gave her yesterday. I bought her new nighties, slippers, knickers and socks all of which have gone missing. The staff said she is hiding things but her room is left unlocked and I think they are being taken! Mum is paying £500 a week and has only been there just over a week and has lost about £700 in lost clothes, shoes and glasses, can we claim from the nursing home?
