Hi feeling really **** off today! Myself and my partner both have 24hr care packages so more often than not there is 4 adults in our home! So can difficult for privacy etc. Sometimes we text each other instead if we are flirting etc.

Yesterday I was told by one of my carers, that there has been comments make about this, as apparently we are bad mouthing carers to each other! The whole reason we do it this way is some carers ease drop on conversation and butt in. So now we communicate this way when it's private. This made me so fuming tbh! It's my home should be able to do and say whatever I like within reason. I've took this really to heart atm, not sure if I should have?

    I'd be fuming too.

    Given all the issues you've been having, I'd suggest asking for a meeting with both care providers represented and your social worker(s) present (I assume with 24 hour care packages adult services are involved) so everyone has a chance to talk through the problems.

    Unfortunately, even if you make a formal complaint to the Social, they'll do 2 things, chuff all and nowt because the care company will blame YOU for causing the problems.

    The exact same thing happened when I had a MAJOR argument with the manager of my former residence last year.

    @Kimi87 thank you! Just needed to hear 1st of all I wasn't overreacting. Second I'm funded by health. Don't know where to go for best literally I've said we'd share a bed for couple of hours. Have single hospital bed each his carers won't even do that
