I'm caring for my mother who has vascular dementia ,three months ago I made the very difficult decision to put it into a care home. I've got much advice from this site and the alzimerers society .The home is a nursing dementia home costing 4400 per month which is top of all the inspection and reviews.
They have been unable to get her to bathe,wash or put cream on they cannot get her to eat properly as she always just say no to everything and refuse to coperate and if pushed to far becomes aggressive so she has lost weight.
I have of course raised these issue with the staff and manager with no success.I have to go every day to make sure she eats.
When I can't go as I'm on holiday she just didn't eat or even drimk properly I don't want to move her and as I looked at 30 homes before I picked this one I have no other options
Any advice please ?
Thanks
Paul
