Anna B Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 Thankyou all for your replies. It's still a very difficult situation, which as tinfoilhat says, is being made impossibly worse by Covid. And a s ECConoob mentions it would be indiscreet to go into more detail on a public forum. I don't know how, if or when it's going to be resolved, but I will let you know what happens if I can. Thankyou all again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The nearest place offering the same/similar treatments is Barnsley which has no available places. He's been waiting over 7 months for a place. However he isn't getting the treatment he needs anyway. It is excruciatingly expensive but funded by the Care Commisioning Group as part of continuing care plan. The CCG were supposed to be at a recent meeting to discuss the issues but didn't turn up. It sounds a really complex situation. As the CCG are the Commissioners, and presumably have a contract with the Care Home, these issues need flagging up with them. Hopefully the meeting will be rescheduled soon, and the CCG can work with your friend and other advocates on this. I know this doesn't help your friend but I think there is a lack of suitable care homes that can support people with complex needs. That means that there is a lack of choice and other options.
