Dementia: Placed In Special Measures

After an incident this morning I have just placed this house in Special Measures.  Maureen woke up this morning and felt she was locked in and has been wandering around the house terrified whilst I have been upstairs unaware of her concerns. I need to review my approach to Maureen’s care and work out how to tread the tightrope of keeping her safe whilst attempting to preserve her independence.

I’m going to adapt the CQC Framework to try to get my act together.

It’s fortunate that I will have 6 months to get my act together!  In the mean time I’ll continue to post details of our daily lives whilst I try to seek improvement as I strive to get out of Special Measures.
