Today my OT came out to discuss hoist options etc but when here we made some decisions together: she emailed the Council OT to ask her to organise ceilings hoists in our front room and my bedroom. She told me that they don’t usually put ceiling hoists in when someone lives above. That may be because of noise but we get constant noise from above so denying me that option would be unfair.
We decided that it’s an appropriate time forum me to be assessed for a care package. We discussed the twos options either a care agency having the funding assigned to me so I employ personal assistants. That’ll be the most flexible option and a better chance for a to get to know that people and build up trust. I don’t need much have now but by the time that it’s organised I most likely will.
We also discussed our local hospice (Bury), Apparently they don’t have services other than outreach workers for moral support. I don’t need that but she referred me anyway.
Fingers crossed this all doesn’t take too long, Lynne xx
