Not good. Not good at all. You are meant to be looking after my Nan. Not harming her. ? It was made very clear she is not to have gluten and I spent over 30 minutes going through dietary needs - she likes fruit, loves ice cream, don't give any bread or biscuits blah blah. What is the point of doing this if she is going to be fed something she cannot eat and makes her ill. How can something as basic as this happen when you see paying £1500 a week?

Start getting the left hand to talk to the right hand. You'll harm less people. I love my Nan I want her to have great care But what does someone who is in a care home do if they don't have a voice - o |
