Hi all , I am completely new to this but so pleased I've found there are people out there struggling like me . My gran has dementia , unfortunately she is now in a nursing home . Her legs are so badly contracted that she has to spend every day in bed . I have had so many many bad experiences with bad nursing and Carer's that my hope is disappearing . A wheel chair assessor called out to see if it was possible for my nan to have a wheelchair but they adviced that her legs were that bad that she wouldn't be able to have one . Am I missing something here ? People are expected to spend the rest of their lives in bed because of contractors ? My nan has not left the room since she was placed in the nursing home in march . Any ideas ??
