Hi, Mother 88 went in hospital for constipation, that was fine after 10 days, shes now been in 108 (we go up everyday to see her) days, lost weight, more fraile, nothing to do, no one to talk to, dimentai gong worst, no exercise, we state she needs to be home as fast as she can, or shes going to have a mini stroke again, but the hospital and social workers dont seem to care. As they state we need cares for her to come home, as she has dementia, they the social workers are getting, or been trying to get carers for us for this long. We found private carers in just one day, but the social workers say we cant have them. We are so frustrated, and think the whole higher hospital staff and social works are so wrong, cruel and disgusting to keep her there getting worst everyday, when she should be home with us and out having a little fun.
IS THERE A UK LAW SAYING WE CANT have our own paid carers before theirs come please ??? But its also my father here all the time, and me 80% of the time, other than I go to work 6 hours. My mothers fineish, we got on great before this and she was no problem, other than her repeating and forgetting things. We used to dress up and go out for meals and drinks with us three times a week, and will still when she comes home, as shes looking forward to that.
What is your opinion please, do you think home would be so much better, need to show these social workers up.
Thank you all so much for your help.
