Hi,
My Mum has been admitted to a care home as my step dad is in hospital and unable to care for her at home. She isn't getting on very well and feels she has been imprisoned. On arrival her behaviour deteriorated but then seemed to improve a little though she was still wanting to go home. Today they took her to the residents lounge and she kicked off so the emergency mental health team were called and she was given an anti psychotic. I'm really worried and just want to take her home but I know she wouldn't manage. Any advice would be gratefully received.
