Crystal feels abandoned by her family as a resident in a care home due to visits being cancelled. I recently visited during the relaxation talking through a closed window whilst I stood outside in the rain not being allowed anywhere near the care home building. I understand her agony at not seeing her children as she doesn’t really understand what is going on. The care home has acted responsibly throughout.
