The home that can take dad was visited by my brother and mum this morning and they also got a call that the other home now had a vacancy and so that was good. The first home has a garden facing room and they liked the staff and the cleanliness and attention. The residents all seemed happy and all the questions were answered. So a reservation, subject to them assessing dad was made and with any luck, they can assess dad on Monday and then with any luck he may be moved on Tuesday or Wednesday. Well that is if he is assessed and they can take him of course.
The other great thing is that the home is just 10 minutes from home and of course, being a home dad can have some familiar things of his around him although he doesn't really want to have photographs as it makes him sad. Just also heard that a friend's mother has been brought home and being nursed there by the family and things are now getting close to the end.
Dad spent most of the day asleep today but is better than he has been for most of the week but - what I do hope is that he gets into this home and gets to see the garden and have a quiet room available for him. Let's hope that this small change might pay some dividends and also give him a bit of peace away from the noisy hospital.
