"Guaranteeing the right to contact in care" Never Again must we treat our loved ones in care in this way, many sadly no longer with us, many died alone, many isolated, many felt abandoned we urge all MPs to join the debate tomorrow @DanCardenMP@tracey_crouch@libdemdaisy#rfr🧵
Never again must those in care be denied the right to see their families at the one time in their lives when they should be together #GloriasLaw#rightsforresidents
Not all in care are older, there are many young people in care denied the right to time with their families - Never again. #GloriasLaw#rightsforresidents
Isolation has torn families apart, deterioration in those we love irreversible. Never again #GloriasLaw#rightsforresidents
As winter approaches, we must never again have this threat hanging over our loved ones in care #GloriasLaw#rightsforresidents
We know there are many amazing Care Homes who have led the way, done all they can. We know that the carers have always done all they can, and we thank them - There are some truly AMAZING care homes and providers #rightsforresidents
We have been asked, do you remember when you joined Twitter? We should never have had to join or even start up, but 2 years later we are still going. Thank you to all who have/do support us. Thread 🧵1/14 #GloriasLaw#rightsforresidents#MyTwitterAnniversary
Every MP that as written to Minister for Care and Mental Health has received the same letter with the same ending - recommending you speak to @CareQualityComm only they will not respond to any complaint - so who will @GillianKeegan 3/9 #rightsforresidents
Very long thread, with new guidance out, few care groups have updated their websites, from what we can see on their written guidance - mostly they are still requiring appointments, some are mentioning testing, some are very out of date. Let us know what your group is up to #rfr
freedom for all - except care homes - here are some of the “freedoms” still in place this morning - will there be a change in guidance? rolling lockdowns continue @GillianKeegan@sajidjavid and are you really going to bring in a “pay per view” really? #rfr
As mask wearing goes - full PPE remains - right or wrong? But why such a difference from seeing family in different homes - a home setting nothing a (care) home setting - mask, gloves and aprons still required #rfr
We still need to be tested - makes sense, for now, but are we now going to be charged a “pay per view” tax to see our loved ones? Most homes let families test at home now so - will we have to pay? @GillianKeegan#rightsforresidents
2021 was a year many of us will remember, probably for the wrong reasons. A total lockdown that had started in March 2020, care homes had never really opened up and for most, window visits were the best we could hope for - horrific (thread following!) #rightsforresidents
We were invited to join @leicesterliz at an online meeting she set up for families, to learn more about the situation, hear what people were experiencing first hand and gave all an opportunity to talk openly #rightsforresidents
