After many months of trying to get help for my mum, she has become housebound. In this time her homecare needs have inevitably increased, in particular over the last few weeks. Getting these needs met has been a mighty struggle for her family. With huge pressures on the Homecare team - because of lack of capacity - she is finally getting the carers she needs.
This has happened in no small part because of the wonderful Frailty Practitioner, Isla. In the two weeks between her first assessment and a follow-up visit a fortnight later, Isla saw my mum's steep deterioration. She was able to argue strongly that my mum's needs were at crisis point and finally the care package is in place.
Thank you Isla!
