Hi,
I am new to this forum and currently looking for a new care home for my Mother, as the place she is in, while doing a first rate job, do not have the resources to cope with her behaviour. She is fairly far down the Dementia track, and seems to do well when given full time one to one attention, but goes off the rails, attacking staff and residents as soon as she feels ignored.
I am currently looking at the *named removed* care home in Gloucestershire. They look very good, with full dementia care support, and Mother's Doctor thinks the world of them. I have "insider" reports (a relative is a student nurse who'se collegues have done placements there) that are also very good. Has anyone had any bad experiences with them? I want to go into this with my eyes wide open, as it is a bit of a distance from where I and she are currently living.
TIA,
R.
