hi there! i havent posted for a few months but have been very busy at home. my dad has been in an assessment unit since early january, as things went out of control at home. he went missing about 4 times, on one night in the new year he left the house after i went to bed around 11 pm and fortunately a nice chap found him about a mile from the house and returned him home.
after 3 weeks the assessment unit suggested a residential home so we arranged a 1 day visit to a nice home not far from where i live. it didnt work out. hes now been re-assessed as requiring emi nursing home care as he has hit a couple of staff. ive got a social worker who i can liase with but i dont know much about emi. i'll find out more next week. ive been told theres not many of these homes around but we live in birmingham so theres bound to be a few. just wondering if anyone knows what these homes are like ?
thanks
bert
