My mother had a fall a few days ago. Since being in has developed kidney infection and diagnosed heart failure. Consultant told her today she could go home. She lived on her own and has 2 carers a day to help with meds. In hospital she is just managing the short shuffle to toilet and bed. They seem to accept her version that her son is coming to stay. Concerned that next time she wont be found so quickly. Social work wont be able to visit for another few days to assess her needs.
Have made formal complaint but consultant sticking to his guns she is medically fit to go home
