Hi
i have posted before on here about getting an assessment for my daughter and husband from the LA.
My husband has been admitted to hospital today and when they asked him if he was stressed, he replied yes he was very stressed about our daughter. After contacting my local carers office for support, they made a request to the LA. I had a call from the LA today, which despite explaining I felt very unwell, as had had to call an ambulance at 5 this morning, and have had to take a lot of pain killers to get through the day, i was once again told that they will not assess my daughter because she was under a MH team, more than a year ago. I was told that now that my husband was in hospital, he could have an assessment before he leaves. However, this will not take into account his caring role and the effect it is having on him.
Meanwhile I took my daughter to see a different GP about 4 or 5 weeks ago, who was going to look at different options for MH treatment, because the GP agreed she could not go back to the MH service she was under, because of what they had done. Of course this has all been put on hold now because of COVID-19. I told the person from the LA that my daughter had had 2 safeguarding referrals made last year to the LA, which had been ignored. He said there was no record of them. I know this to be untrue, as my daughter made a SAR for her records, and these notifications were both present. I feel very concerned because despite registering for help from the LA for vulnerable people who had to self isolate, last week, we have been ignored. I don't feel confident that anything i send them will be taken into account. Our copybook has been blotted so to speak.
