MikeyBikey Is Unwell - Part II

The mystery of the three carers a day and dossett boxed was solved today. I was talking to one of the nurses and mentioned it. It was written down that you had three carers a month prior to admission in March! I was admitted nearly a month earlier and despite being far from from well was discharged. Various things were not in place and I was readmitted 15; hours later. My sister asked Patient Discharge why they discharged me when I was quite ill and the care package was not fully in place. One person the bay said they were totally dishonest!
 
@MikeyBikey another approach would be to research Advocacy Services in your area. Your local authority has a duty to provide advocacy services for people experiencing difficulty getting sense out of the to social care system.

If you google "advocacy" and "<your> county council " you should get a lead into who provide the advocacy services in your area. A call to whoever provides that service for your local authority might be helpful to you. No promises, like all things in the social care sector the quality is very post code dependent, but there is a chance you can get at least to talk to somebody who knows the ropes and maybe can get the right buttons pressed for you.
