Hi. I was quite shocked yesterday by the attitude of my Dad's care home. Dad has been admitted to hospital via A&E recently and on each occasion my husband and I have managed to get there within half an hour.
I asked the question what would happen if we were unable to get there straight away (say we were on a day out) and the answer I received was that Dad would be just sent to hospital on his own which is their policy.
I find it hard to stomach that a caring organisation doesn't care once the resident has crossed the threshold.
I'd be interested in views and experiences of others.
