This is the worst and saddest thing I have ever read here!
I imagined my own poor father in that situation and feel heartbroken on his behalf and outraged for you.
I hope by now you have reported this abuse and he is being protected.
Please let us know of the outcome which I hope will be a good one.

Firstly thank you so much for all of your responses to a complete stranger, the kindness of this portal never ceases to amaze me. I have felt so alone in this quest for a good placement for my dad. His behaviour has changed recently as he is going through bereavement, his dad died (my grandad) which complicates dementia massively. The staff at the care home know this but have failed to respond appropriately and even mocked him when he cried.
I think extra information would help responses, so here goes:
- this did happen and I managed to get a recording capturing the abuse.
- it's a care home owned by a private provider.
We just want to get him in a suitable place but I am prepared to bring this house of cards down, I am very angry with the local authority as I see these as the guardian angels, we have raised concerns twice and they have failed to see our concerns twice reporting no need to intervene. They do not know about this footage that I have caught yet, I want to go as high up as possible and bypass any bureaucracy. I want to name and shame the individuals who spoke to my dad in the way that they did and talked about sexual references about my mother to aggravate him. Are there people who take on cases like this, I am recovering from a brain haemorrhage and feel that I might not have the energy or cognitive capacity to cope with such a thing. We have had a awful year and are in desperate need of help but feel that we have suitable evidence to take this to the next level.
Thanks again.
