Hi there , I am just looking for some advice and guidance. My Nan is currently in a nursing home receiving end of life care . A doctor confirmed this to us about 4 weeks ago. Me and my sister have continued to visit my Nan three times a week on special circumstances since the Coronavirus restrictions. At this point my Nan is increasingly sleepy each day, taking longer to wake , refusing any to eat and drinking only a little, has had to have a catheter and is hallucinating regularly and very cold . Her health has deteriorated each week. Yesterday we got the call to say the home is now refusing our access as my Nans end of life is not imminent . We phoned head office who said that they understood our negative feelings towards this decision and seemed on our side but it was down to the care home . When we phoned the care home back to talk through a compromise of maybe 1 visit a week they hung up on my sister .
I just wanted to ask if anyone knows if legally the home is allowed to refuse us this access as Nan is on end of life . I am worried that I will never see my Nan again xx
