In care

ellie2000

R they allowed to decide not to provide care even through they give u times wen to expect it? do ppl no the care commission number? I can only the 61 number wen I google it. Or don't organisations want to be grassed up? wen u notice things r not quite right. I no wat to look out for, I've started to question other tenants

ellie2000

@ellie2000 , thank you so much for these messages. It sounds like you have a lot on your mind right now, and I hear you asking whether your care providers and staff are allowed to be treating you this way. Your feelings are valid, and no one has a right to make you uncomfortable.

May I ask, when you say that your care-providers did not give you the care they promised they would, what happened there? What kind of care did they decide not to provide?

When you say that the manager shouted at you too, that sounds like it might have been frightening. Can we check that you're safe right now, Ellie? Would there be another trusted adult that you'd feel able to talk to about this?

You mentioned that you've stopped doing the things you enjoy, and it sounds really upsetting, Ellie. It feels like this situation has been going on a long time now, which is very hard.

We're here with you and we're listening.

If you do feel unsafe at any stage, we'd encourage you to reach out to one of the following places:

Police 999 for emergencies where you feel in danger

There’s an organisation called NSPCC. They offer advice & information to anyone concerned about a young person at risk of abuse, including children and young people themselves. The helpline is available Monday to Friday 11am-5pm on 0808 800 5000, but you can email help@nspcc.org.uk or complete their report abuse online form on their website at any time. You can also go to www.nspcc.org.uk for more details.

Is This Ok? Is an organisation that supports young people with anything you are worrying about. They have a chatbot which can support you with advice and information 24/7. Their specialist advisers are available to chat to from 2:30pm-9:30pm Monday to Thursday and 4pm-11pm Friday, Saturday and Sunday. So they'd open at 4pm today if you wanted to talk to someone this afternoon. Their website is https://www.isthisok.org.uk/

How does that sound Ellie? We're here for you.

@Sian321 I went to a social prescriber, would they be able to sort out? I'm safe, I'm goin to mums wenever and I got support from SLT. Hopefully wen I've left, The organisation will be checked. 😀

ellie2000

I got support from outside 😀 I just wake up thinking of stuff

Sian321

Hi @ellie2000 , that sounds so positive that you've been able to talk to your social prescriber, and thank you very much for confirming that right now you are physically safe. You're doing so well reaching out for support, and talking with your Mum too. We know in the past you've mentioned she's been a big course of support.

How do you get on with your social prescriber? Are they nice?

Day-to-day, what kind of activities help you to look after your wellbeing when the environment in your home feels really stressful?

ellie2000

@Sian321 mum was told I didn't hav support on purpose, but ppl normally ring the doorbell, but I no tht support didn't turn up. Wen I asked a carer y he didn't support 1 evening he changed the subject n tlk to a different person. I asked a tenant about support they're r getting n they sed tht they left them too and they sed 3 out of 5 and another doesnt bother with them. Y do ppl with power twist the truth? The management is corruption in his pocket frm the places b4 the present

ellie2000

Y do carers do visits tht u do not need and u no who r not there 4 the care job
They got told to ignore me by management

Sian321

Hey @ellie2000 , hmmm that sounds really hard, esspecially as management told your carers to ignore you.

Can we ask, what kind of care do they usually provide for you, if you feel comfortable saying?

ellie2000

@Sian321 I went there after i put a concerning post on here. The management at tht time was gr8, they did stuff with us like art class, quiznite n stuff n it was quite friendly. Wen the management changed most of the expienced staff left n all activities stopped. Some of the expienced staff r left, but they're highering ppl off the street now with little training n i expect with no vetting either. I have to say sometimes 'it's not about the staff, it's about the tenant' it broke down wen they left me at therapy after i went. N they got huffy b4 after therapy after tht and they wanted to leave during decompression stage n tht got me stressy
I'm just venting dw.

I'm moving soon but it's goin nowhere,
