OP I’m so sorry to read this has happened to you. This isn’t your fault at all, you covered all your tracks with regards to the bleach, it’s not your fault the family have been ignorant to the fact you told them multiple times you moved it. How rude can they be!
Hold your heard high, you’re not the guilty one. Who keeps moving it back to the cupboard after your moved it. Are they idiots, knowing there’s small children in the house. All they’ve done is pass the blame, knowing it’s them in the wrong but don’t want to look bad. To ask you to fork out for replacement Boden clothing too, this is ridiculous.
Something similar happened to myself many heads ago when I was a full time Carer. I worked for agency, where I did home care. One service user was an old man in his 80s. Had all his faculties and was of sound mind. All that was wrong was he wasn’t too good on his feet so needed help washing and dressing. Everyday was the same, he had a routine. So I followed his routine down to a T and I didn’t ever do anything different as I knew he’d be annoyed and so would his wife. Anyway, one morning I did everything I was meant to. Followed the routine, left happy knowing I’d done my job properly. The next morning, I came back, and just before I went upstairs to meet the service user, his wife called me over to the doorway of their lounge and lashed out and laid into me, having a go and telling me off for something I didn’t do. I was furious but had to remain 100% professional. I explained what she was accusing me off was incorrect. She told me I’d left her husband alone, in the bathroom, undressed before I left their house the morning before and she was disgusted with me. This was not true, I’d made sure the service user was dressed and well before I left. He’d only started taking off his clothes again after I left and blamed me. She was so nasty about it and made me feel so bad. Even though I’d done nothing, she wasn’t having any of it and continued to blame me. This service user was a pervert too, he always tried to touch my breasts, said horrible things to me, sexual things, and I had to remain professional and ignore them. I did report them to the office manager but they didn’t do nothing. I did discuss the sexual harassment with the service users wife on several occasions and told her it was inappropriate, also I had to remind the service user he wasn’t supposed to talk to me that way. His wife didn’t want to know though, she again told me I was lying that her husband wasn’t like that and wouldn’t say those things. Eventually I demanded to my office manager I will no longer be washing and dressing this man. That he keeps trying to touch me and says inappropriate things to me and his wife also accuses me of doing things I didn’t do. They finally listened to me in the office and managed to employ a male carer to attend to the service users needs. I didn’t have to go there again thankfully. Apparently, I heard through the grape vine that the wife and her husband was absolutely gutted I was no longer caring for the man, and they didn’t want the new male carer but it was tough. What she said to me calling me a liar changed things as before I did like her, and after all the crap I put up with from her husband, this was the perfect opportunity for me to refuse to go back.
this will cause animosity between yourself and your employers but if they can sit there an accuse you of something you didn’t do, that says a lot about who they are, this is no reflection on you, it’s on them! Continue to hold your head high, carry on doing what you do, be polite and then eventually leave, don’t work for them anymore. They’ll soon see what they’ve lost!! You deserve better than to be treated that way.
good luck OP
