IF you're not happy I would seriously cause a hell of a lot of fuss, nursing homes don't like it when people do that, I know because I used to be a night carer in one. IF you feel the level of care isn't good enough the I would really suggest looking elsewhere because chances are your gut feeling is right. The one I used to work at charged a lot for the room and it was run by someone very snooty who in my opinion didn't have the residents best interest at heart and that to me is disgusting. Ask to see their careplans, if you're not happy cause a fuss, tell them you want something done or you'll be getting social services on their backs. I've also worked as a home carer and did the occasional 3/4 calls a day to clients and even then we had one morning found a lady who fell 10pm the previous night, we got there around 8 in the morning and she was in such a state and no matter how much we told her family about her falls nothing was ever done, we recommended they got night carers in and a system in place for that button she can press in emergencies (the name has totally slipped my mind) so don't feel bad about having to make the decision for her because at the end of the day you need 2 do what is best for her and falling is such a big risk of someone of that age. Maybe a full time carer may be the answer.. but if you feel she would want her own space then warden monitored accommodation?? We used to visit some clients in places like Anchor care homes and they to me look fantastic, one of the best places I've seen for elderly ppl. They got a full range of activities going on and they each have their own little flats which look very nice and of course staff on call 24 hours a day and people who come and do your shopping/cleaning etc. maybe that'll be another option?

:hihi: I love how they've even detailed ribbed on the first one

Sadly you cant trust people nowadays and even if you live in a little village where you know everyone it only takes a stranger to be driving through at the right time. I wouldn't leave my dog outside a shop ever, They could slip their collars, be stolen or have another dog come up and attack them. I wouldn't put my dog in a situation where you leave them open to people to steal them. You hear so many horror stories about this happening yet people still do it.

I got 3 lovely temperament rats from the petshop near primark in Rotherham town centre, the owner handles the animals from a young age to get them used to being picked up.

This girl has been playing on my mind! I saw her running through the genal up near turnshaw avenue, I tried to stop her but she was very spooked and soaked through the poor thing I was trying to catch her to put in my house until I got back from my call, I'm a carer so I couldn't miss the call but I thought if she's in the house at least she's safe rather than being on the loose. I came home and told my boyfriend all about her and I kept saying " I wonder if that springer is ok" it's really been playing on my mind, I'm so glad she's safe now

This one?

Speaking to someone earlier this week, Was told they got a very low quote for their car which is quite new and worth well over what they got paid, as mentioned before I think this site is mainly for ppl who are desperately seeking quick money.

He had no problems being served in Bluecoats in Rotherham, I was on the table in front of him on Wednesday having some lunch, Only realised it was him when I saw the photo in the star.

about 6 hours between night shifts

I would imagine a lot of delays would be due to the weather we've had recently, I bet there is a huge backlog of parcels and letters and probably not enough time in the day to get them all out in one go, Give it a few more days and chase it up again.

I think it's down to what proof of birth and certificates people keep hold of, I've seen a lot of people saying they've had pets live longer but nothing in concrete proof.

http://www.apprenticeships.org.uk/ - That site is pretty good but it can take a while to get a response so if you're looking for something quicker it might be best to call up a few places and ask - Good Luck
