My mother has recently moved into a residential home and wonders around 24/7. She goes in to other resident’s rooms and takes their possessions, she sleeps in a chair in the lounge and never goes to bed. She wears multiple layers of cloths and on some occasions jumpers are worn as trousers.
She has attached her self to a male resident that she now believes to be her husband. Staff have reported that my mother entered his room with the intention of getting in to bed with him. The man was not aware of the incident as staff managed to redirected her out of his room. She then hung around his bedroom door for a further two hours before eventually returning to the lounge area.
This was reported as a safeguarding issue. My question is ‘is it?’
And how do I find out about the outcome?
