I hid camera and caught this care home thug beating up my mum

23 – 04 – 2012

Jane’s mother who 81 years old and has Alzheimer, always lived with her until she needed round-the-clock care. She had to move her mum to Ash Court, which was given an “excellent” rating by the Care Quality Commission. After a few weeks Jane noticed bruising on her mother’s arms and hands. She decided to install cameras which caught the abuse of her mother. She was shocked when she found out that the nurse stroke her mother six times. She also noticed that the workers never greeted or talked to her mother.

This does not only happens in the UK, it is a problem all over the world. It is awful how people who decide to work with older people treat them with no respect and even abuse them. When I read this I hope I never become a vulnerable old woman and never have to live in a home. I hope that homes are going to take more measures to resolve this problem because it still happens. Jane’s way to find out what happened with her mother is fantastic and I hope that the children pay extra attention when their parents live in a home. Because of Jane the abuser is caught and put in jail so he cannot hurt anybody anymore.

  2. well that shoudn't take long then!! ;-)

    I hope the goverment sees that this is a real problem. They probably cut budget's just like here so there is hardly any personel to treat the elderly with the respect the deserve.
