Edna had no family to speak for her, when she was abused in a care home she was totally reliant on someone speaking out to protect her. Seven Whistle-blowers did speak out and were forced out of their jobs for doing so. The regulator fully upheld the abuse alligations but the company continually denied there was anything wrong.Those responsible for the abuse were protected and promoted. Four years later information was made public that showed vulnerable people had continued to sufferer. Edna's law would ensure this never happens again. |

Last nights Panorama special featured an undercover report on the Old Deanary Care home as a result of this charitys work with Whistle-blowers. We have always highlighted the suffering that results when Whistle-blowers are ignored or unable to speak out, to see that avoidable suffering captured on film really drives this home but what should not be forgotton is that this is one of hundreds of cases where abuse happened after whistle-blowers spoke out. |

Update On Home 101. I decided to return to home 101 and see if any improvements had been made. I have copied my initial report on this home below, it is clear that the residents in this home have suffered since the day it opened and continue to suffer. This company should not have been registered by CQC in the first place given their previous history. By Eileen Chubb ( Copyright of Eileen Chubb 2011) Tales Of The Un-Inspected, Home 101 |
