It's their way of saying they take good care of them.
I don't blame them for that. They are doing their job and they are succeeding.
And really, I suppose that's what you want to hear from carehomes?
I researched for years and never intended on putting her in one - but I had a health issue and had to.
I found this one that is very clean. The staff are, for the most part, friendly. They are ticking the boxes. She's safe.
But... it's hard. It's so, so hard.
And it's no easier with her being in the care-home.
Don't know if you've seen this thread -
https://forum.alzheimers.org.uk/threads/struggling.148633/ - about trying to not be in 24hr caregiving mode.
I read it a lot. Still to put it in motion yet. Not sure I even know how. Hoping it will help a bit.
