I mean I was worried already, but the Covid restrictions are just making it feel more awful and scary. 😓
He'll obviously need a covid test, but the bit that is worrying me is that he'll have to isolate in his room for 2 weeks. Plus we can't take him in, he'll just have to go in himself at the door with the staff.
I know it's become too much for my mum to cope with and we've all agreed it's the right thing for them both, but I'm just feeling the guilt I guess.
He has dementia and has deteriorated massively over lockdown, he's anxious to get 'home'. They've been where they are for almost 10 years, but is not right to him.
If anyone has recent experience of moving into a care home and how it went or any advice I'd appreciate it, thanks
