My sister had a stroke and fast tracked dementia three years ago. Since then she has been living in Pear Trea under DOLs. Supporting her has not been easy as she previously lived as a recluse and I had not seen her for ten years. The was her choice not to engage with our other siblings She lived...
The care home staff have been really helpful to me in understanding her behaviour - she was not always easy and often rude to me and blamed me for locking her up. She always wanted to go home and this went through the specialist court. It was agreed she could not care for herself safely. Over time I saw that her dementia had increased. I am very happy with the care and support she is given - and bit by bit she has been encouraged to get involved in the excellent entertainment activity sessions etc. She is very well supported to maintain good cleanliness routine and the medical care is great. Food is very good and meal times sociable
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience and for your kind words about our home and team. We appreciate that the journey following your sister's stroke and dementia diagnosis has been challenging, and we are grateful for the trust you have placed in us over the past three years.
