Hi! I'm an unpaid carer for my dad.
He has dlb. My mum has disabilities and depressions. Following 2 accidental overdoses one 999 no hospital one a and e for bit...
Many blips with tablets. My mum supposed to be supervising!!!
We had medical assessment and dad agreed to signing to it.
Social services came back and said he's not been accepted on the scheme as he doesn't use any other council led home care!
I bust my gut to help him and my mum..It falls apart they both miss tablets. He's diabetic and he's had 2 overdoses of meds as I've said. I can't be there morning and night as I'm there 7 days.
In all of your areas what are the procedures if they have to take over meds???
I'm taking his case further..I need info from other areas to weigh up if what my council are doing is legal!!!!
We were told by S's keep ringing the ambulance if you suspect any more overdoses and the last paramedic put safeguarding form in...
Hope to get as many replies as possible
Thank you all.
