They probably wouldn't have time to read it anyway but our night staff will. I make sure all the carers write in the file before they leave. One said she would do it next time she came that night and I told her if something happened before she came, ambulance staff or doctors would want to know how he was earlier. I then handed her the pen and file.

My poor Bierke (My nickname for him).

Sometimes our eyes need to be opened that though they cannot respond like days of old, they can still feel.

Thank you NannaB

I have recently done my own afternoon careplan , Made it simple to read pointing out lol the little gritty things that I want done for John that make it better for John and easier for them. when anyone New comes then I ask th m to sit don and read I through it . this makes it much easier for the carer as well .
