I think my social worker thick as two blanks 2 years I have know her ,for 2 years she has NOT told me that they is a daycentre , that take people with AZ 7 days a week and is run by social services. While the AZ is a lovely daycentre for my mother and I am not complaining but are under funded as they are a charity so can’t staff the centre fully to take more people so are going to cut people days, in another area I find out that they only get one day a week, its been like that for 20 years .
And social service, put all the purser on AZ daycentre, while they have they own one, and don’t tell me , only when the lady at mum AZ tall me this , when she must of felt bad when they did not have cover for staff members that had taken holidays , so had to take a day of my mother days going to daycentre for that week only , And then they are going to amalgamating 2 AZ day center , so days are being cut , from people like my mother that get 3 days so this lead me to ask her how the whole system work .
So I rang this other daycentre and they said they are run by social services and I had to get a referral from my social worker , she ask me (SW) why I wanted more days for my mother , making me feel guilty in asking , that’s why I think she think , how would she like to live with her mother 24/7 even if they was nothing wrong with her , let alone when they is something wrong with her .
My mother enjoys going to daycentre it motivate her so much , while she still can , I told social I did not want respite .
Never told her this but felt like saying this :- This is my mother not my husband, why do we have to be glue together, I need my space still want to care for my mother at home , I don’t want someone to sit with my mother to give me time out , while they is thing like daycentre she can still participate in while she can .
Sorry this is a rant , am going to print it out
so am telling you all , I feel kinda better now
