A pensioner with dementia suffered a fractured wrist just seven days after moving into a nursing home
.
Now, Mr Claeys has told how his dad, from Speke, was transferred to Alt Park after spending time at Broadgreen Hospital earlier this year. He said seven days later he found during a visit that his dad had a fractured wrist and ligature marks on his arm. In an email seen by the ECHO, Trust officials said allegations of neglect by Alt Park in relation to Mr Claeys’ broken wrist had been substantiated
The CQC report released earlier this month said their inspection had been prompted by “multiple concerns” being raised regarding the management of the home “people not being sufficiently hydrated and concerns relating to a poor culture within the service.” The document found residents’ medicines were not managed safely and as a result, they were placed in “avoidable harm.”
Mr Claeys said his dad, diagnosed with dementia five years ago, was a keen footballer in his youth - turning out for Liverpool’s under 21s - and worked all his life as a technician across the North West. He added: “He is a great dad and was a wonderful husband to my mum.”
