Anne’s Law Comes Into Force: Scotland Enshrines the Right to Visit in Law thecareruk.com/annes-law-come… #Adult_Social_Care #Care_Homes #Care_Residents #Covid-19

@JohnCampaign Please wait for the regulations and code to be published for full details, they are due soon.
English
We must do better than that.
Thank you for continuing to point these serious unintended consequences

@rightsforresid2 @JohnCampaign @wesstreeting @SKinnock Version of Anne’s Law passed means care home providers must enforce blanket suspension of visiting when next pandemic arrives No family rights apart from end of life visiting Not to follow the law and suspend visiting would mean care providers facing litigation/criminal charge
English
@peploewollen @rightsforresid2 @CareChampions2 It was explained that they could not give equal access a while ago. The code and regulations which will be published soon will explain how it works. A manager cannot decide alone to suspend visits.
English
@rightsforresid2 @ChrScotland @scotgovhealth @ThomasCArthur @ScotParl @CareChampions2 Annes Law was meant to legislate for equivalent family access to care homes as care home staff
Family right to visit to be enshrined in law
Scottish Government declined this (even though a manifesto promise)
Law now passed formalises care home manager right to suspend visiting
English
Thank you for all your support @JenniKBurton 🌻

We were very sad to hear that Jeane Freeman has died shortly after a cancer diagnosis. Jeane contacted us the day of our first demo in 2020 & we held many meetings with her where we always felt she listened. Our sympathies go to Susan and her family at this sad time.

‘Perth care home firm Balhousie posted record profits of more than £9.6 million after increasing its fees.’
Surely as a society we can work out ways to care for people without subjecting them to financial abuse?

Horrific treatment of residents - every relatives worst fears. Similar programmes in England & Ireland have shown the same neglect & abuse all whilst staff are paid minimum wages and owners make millions in profit @JohnSwinney @ThomasCArthur @scottishcare @alzscot @agescotland
