I do not know how you can ensure privacy, dignity or confidentiality in these circumstances.
During one these visits I saw an elderly gentleman with dementia get off a trolley exposing himself because he had no pyjama bottoms on.
He was very unsteady on his feet….so a fractured hip waiting to happen.
It is lamentable and much of it is because people cannot get to see GPs.
Taddy I hope that Hazel is OK.

I'm just wondering if any of you have raised these issues with the CQC? The service was deemed inadequate in 2019 because of corridor care. It appears that this has not changed. It may be worth raising this with the CQC, especially with concerns about privacy, dignity and confidentiality.
