Susie

In the last 13 months sue has had 118 incidents of challenging behaviour

I do not know how the Montrose model will work. I am worried about the quality of care and support she will get there.

Also she has had to be physically restrainted 31 times. Now i know it can take 5 staff to be able to safely restrain Sue, how are two going to do it at Montrose. Will the rn help, will the onsite psch help? It's still one less than needed. Yet another question not explained by the CJP.

I think they are to worried about money and not about safety and quality of life for Sue and a safe and well support work place for staff.

I do not understand how you could read Sue's notes and decide the best thing for her is to move her to somewhere with less. It has less than what she needs.
