The nurses that came were lovely and helped my mother and I. However, I think the assessment process needs to be looked at. I was not going to put my mum in a hospice as I waited her to spend her last days at home in our house. On the day of her assessment, to my astonishment, I was told that she wasn't "eligible" despite her clearly dying, weighing 6.0 stone and low BP. The very next day she collapsed and lost the use of her legs I was doing my best to care for her single handedly and coud have really done with support from your team. We only received support 48 hrs before she died. That can't be right, can it?
