Today I have had an hour long phone call from a social worker which has really upset me.
She said she was responding to a request from the care home OH is in and mentioned DOLS and 'best interests'.
She will be interviewing OH in his care home tomorrow and if he is still saying he 'wants to go home' a doctor must also get involved.
She said she needs to decide if he 'doesn't have capacity'. She wants to appoint a representative for DOLS- probably someone from Mind to ensure that OH's views are taken into account.
What on earth is this all about. I am so worried.
