The social worker we have is worse than useless. She tells us nothing and expects us to know everything. I asked her to find out about care homes three weeks ago and when gav mentioned this to her today she said 'oh I will start looking into that then' Why is she STARTING to look into it now?? I get the impression she knows NOTHING about anything and is just the person we have to nag to get home help sorted for Jean.
FINALLY Nancy has told the SW that she has had enough and isn't going to feed or look after Jean anymore. Up til now Nancy has been saying that to us but then telling the SW that she is fine with things how they are and making me out to be a liar!!! She makes me soooooooo mad. I know it is hard for her but it also hard for us being so far away and everytime we turn round she is telling anyone who will listen (home help and SW included) that we are useless and not doing anything!! I am going round in so many circles I am getting dizzy!! At least we can move slightly forward now that she has told the SW that she can't cope - I guess that is something at least.
Tomorrow will be spent cleaning Jean's house since that is one of the things gav got yelled at by Nancy over today. And finally someone has told us WHAT to buy to feed her with at least in part. I am not a mind reader, nor have I lived with Jean so I do not know what she likes to eat, so I need to be told. This afternoon will be spent shopping for her to stock up the kitchen.
Sorry got a bit off topic there, what I really need to know is where I go if the social worker is rubbish??? How do I find out information on care homes in two different counties by myself??
Any help gratefully received.
