We can only apologise for the upset the current situation has caused the family. Service users who walk with purpose are free to access all areas of the units they live in. We try our best to ensure that the environment they live in is safe. With anyone who independently mobilises comes risks, one of which is falls. On all forms on hand, the service user was trying to get up on her own hence the staff assisted her to do so. Our protocol is to immobilise a fallen resident regardless of if it is witnessed or unwitnessed fall. In this situation, the service user was adamant to get up and was struggling hence staff assisted her. After a couple of hours, she showed discomfort and pain, emergency services were called immediately but unfortunately, we do not have control over their arrival. The current management is unable to comment on events that had happened in the past. We choose not to comment on the cleanliness as we are going to be at risk of breaching confidentiality.

Good Morning Jane,
I am sorry to hear that you were not entirely happy with your father's time spent here at Eastcotts Nursing Home. It's a shame that these issues were not expressed during his time with us in order for us to resolve them. I myself answered the telephone call from you after you had been to collect your father's possessions when you informed me that the wheelchair and a blanket were missing and that the television screen was broken. I informed you that we would find the wheelchair and blanket and leave them for you to collect at the Reception area which we did within 10 minutes of your call and they are still in the building for you to collect. In regards to the television, I explained to you that myself and the Maintenance Man had carried out a 'room check' of your father's room that morning and that the television screen at that time was intact. Once again I would like to apologise to you for the concerns that you have expressed on behalf of the Team here at Eastcotts.

Thank you for the feedback, it is very appreciated. Concerns regarding the safety of residents, we always aim to put the residents in the most suited area for their needs. If any residents have behaviour issues they will be monitored and if required additional support given, and if necessary 1-1 care support will be provided to ensure no other residents are at risk. Activities are now being provided 5 days a week and also individuals on weekends who are unable to attend. Covid - we acknowledge this was a miscommunication within our team, and we aim to make sure this does not happen again.

We are sorry that you were not satisfied with the room that had been allocated for your husband on admission. However we are pleased that you are satisfied with the alternative room that your husband was moved into so promptly by the staff.
