Hi
My Gran has a couple of carers come in per day for wash/undress at bed. Which involves her being naked which as her grandson would feel uncomfortable doing.
One of the bedtime carers brought someone in and said they were shadowing if they like the job. She sat in the same room as my gran being undressed.
I have found out she was her mate and not shadowing at all
Appalled I contacted the manager who said she would investigate.
Week later I phoned and she’s still investigating!! Basically done nothing! She tried to put the blame on me saying I should’ve reported it earlier. I reported it as soon as I was made aware.
I have written to local authority and CQC.
Surely a carer bringing a friend into calls, and I know she’s done it recently too, is something that should be investigated promptly and a sackable offence?
