Anchor - Springfield care home

Janet Tyne

My husband died in Springfield after 4 days. When the social worker got my husband in I was under the impression it was a nursing home and I did meet two nurses who where on duty different days they were charge of two floors the rest were mostly young people who were very pleasant but not enough experience in dealing with Oxygen or Catheters. After looking after my husband who was on Oxygen for 11 years I needed a break I feel looking after your loved ones at home is hard and the only help you get you pay for. The thing is young people think old people need nappies on, commodes at the side of their beds, (even if they have a toilet) and all old people can't drink out of cups and the managers don't tell them different. I pray I never need to go in any home or hospital but if I do pray it will be vetted and not taken on trust.
