hello everyone
some of you may know my mum is in a dementia ward at a local hospital, comming home 2 days a week, some 3 weeks ago she fell out of bed in the middle of the night the morning shift came on and called a doctor who turned up 6 hours later the bruises are just starting to fade, yesterday she fell again the morning shift called a doctor who again turned up after 4pm in the afternoon, we were told its not as bad as it looks
ive posted a picture of my poor mum who also has conjunctivitis in the affected eye from the last fall.
we were going to take it further the last time but they seemed to have a answer for everything, the same as this time.... accidents will happen.
we havent decided what to do about this fall yet... is there anything we can do?
i feel so angry yet so helpless as to what to do.
not sure if anybody can give me any answers but i just wanted to get it off my chest, thanks for listening
