A family member was recently admitted to Ward 4, Forth Valley Royal Hospital. In the first 9 hours, he has a cut to his hand, cut above his eye (blood still on his hand and on his trainers). There was no call to family members, no information provided at ward handover. Still wearing his lunch and dinner, nothing on the bedroom door for a person with dementia to identify his room. His bag of clothing, toiletries etc had to be asked for. This is a person that has dementia, taken out of his home environment less than 9 hours previously. Where is was the person-centred care?
