>> fitting of short bed rails
SWMBO is now back home after a spell in hospital including while there ,10 days in isolation after being exposed to Covid in A & E.
The first time I had seen that all the wards on her floor had no pay TVs.
There appeared to be no stimulation for dementia patients.
She now has an "Hospital bed at home. I requested bed rails.
No, was the amswer. We dont do bed rails for demential patients. I guess a single solution for all sorts of dementai patients ????
We can supply a crash mat.
So it appears that it is OK to let her fall out of bed and then sort out the effects.
My experience with the hospital was not good.
Not allowed to talk to A & E doctors.
If they had a patient they could not verbally communicate with then a translater would be found.
I am the translator for SWMBO but rules is rules. Go home and have a kip.
Doctors screwed up on several fronts. I told them they were wrong and eventually they confirmed I was right. So much for databases. All were well meaning but wasted lots of time cos they did not ask / talk to me first.
I do not need alarms as SWMBO now rides in a hoist rquiring two carers to use it.
I am now in pay the big care bills phase.
