Upon my dads arrival in the assessment wards the care, cleanliness help he received was brilliant, he was then moved over to another ward awaiting a residential move and everything went down hill, out of the week I would visit 5 day, he had no clean clothes, no remote for his TV so no tv in his room the whole time he was there, furniture falling apart, his room was full of ants, most days I arrived he was on the floor, yet another fall, for 2 wks I shared my concerns but nothing was done, to then receive a call (from the nice nurse) to say he had fell in the garden causing a huge deep cut on his forehead down to his skull, i still don't know or understand how this occurred, as he couldn't walk unaided, needed assistance, but for this to happen he must have been alone, he was transferred to hospital and 3 wks later still there, still no call from the management explaining anything, i did received a call from the hospital to say the home have released his bed and he won't be going back.
