I don’t doubt it, Linc, but we can only speak from personal experience. The point is of course that all care homes should be at the same level of quality as my mother’s. Bumble Bee has commented about her father’s care, I believe.

Just a footnote as I do not want to get re-emboiled in this, but the care home in which my mother spent the last 10 years of her life had 2 formal inspections a year and a number of unannounced inspections, when the inspector literally turned up unannounced. I have to say it was a good home which we were lucky to find but I’m sure there are many which fall short.

No comment!!:mad::mad:

Thanks fior the tip – are Spits and Gannets monsters..? Funny title.:confused:

Thank you both for the pictures and links. I do hope someone can arrange a smalll celebration – it seems to be crying out for it!:)

“……..bring about a change in the attitudes and morals of the society in which we live.“

Exactly, Kev it and summarises what I was saying in an earlier post. Scratching about at the surface will achieve nothing, and probably make it worse.

But I can add nothing more, either to my comments or to the thread so I will bow out before, as Anna so deftly put it, it revolves completely.

#14, in case you missed it.

I think you will find I have ventured a few thoughts on the general subject in the thread.
