Hi i hope this message reaches the group of people i have been in touch with for a couple of years on here. I am struggling to work out how to send a message again. My Husband is in a care home and its been one thing after the other i contacted the CQC and ive discussed things with 2 of his social workers some things got better but its never felt right and i wish i had removed him from there right at the beginning but due to my mental health i have struggled with alot of things, i thought making my complaints was an achievement for me but i feel pretty useless as he is still there and now he is on drinks with the thickener in to help prevent drinks going into the lungs and his food is a different consistency now and alot of his favourite things he cannot eat. He has Lewy bodies dementia. He cannot really communicate now though if i were to say does his leg hurt he can say yes or no, his legs are now in the foetal position due to muscle wasting in his legs, he never got the physio that we were told he would get by the hospital as he stopped walking due to an infection 8 days in to respite at the home. The physios came out twice asked for a rotunda to be able to test him on but there wasnt one and it took weeks to arrive sadly. All my complaints led to one admission of partial to a safe guarding and 8days fees were deducted. We are helped by the council with payments. Now ive been asked about making a peace plan with his new gp there, i discussed with manager what i probably would go with but said i would like to speak with gp face to face please in mean time a form has been sent outlining what im meant to have agreed to and i said no i need to speak with his gp, which i am doing Monday hopefully its her anyway. So much miscommunication. The reason im posting is if he gets something which needs medication like chest infections or something else i thought keeping him at the home be preferable but just lately theres always something like fire alarms tested. People buzzers obviously, theres loud tvs sometimes and now this evening next door is a new patient with an air flow mattress that about half hourly lets out a whining noice that goes on and on loudly until a carer swiches it off it has a fault she said, we are upstairs so unless carer comes up its just left and im dreading how tonight will be, my husband sleeps alot but i dont know if this can upset him and its just another irritation if he stays there for the peace plan i will tell gp Monday im wondering if others have been in this situation and how you made the decision whether to send your loved one to Hospital instead of gp maybe visiting, ive been told moving him wouldnt be good idea but neither is the noise. Sorry ive gone on im so upset with it all. Thankyou if you read it…Jackie x
