Liverpool City Council (24 005 148)
Statement Upheld Residential care 15-Sep-2024
Summary: Mrs X complains the Council was at fault in the way a care home it commissioned cared for her mother Mrs Y causing distress. We have found no evidence of fault by the Council in the way it has charged Mrs Y for her stay at the care home. We found no evidence of fault in the standard of care provided to Mrs Y over her weight and nutritional needs. The Council has accepted there was fault in the way the care provider responded to Mrs X’s complaints about the matter, apologised and offered a suitable remedy in recognition of the distress caused. We found fault in the way the care home dealt with Mrs Y’s hearing aids, glasses and clothing which has adversely impacted onto Mrs X. I have recommended a suitable remedy in this case, so we have completed our investigation.

Summary: We will not investigate this complaint about the failure to tell the complainant of her relative’s death. We understand the distress this caused, but we are satisfied the care provider, on behalf of the council, has given a thorough response, apologised, and will seek to improve future service. We would not achieve anything further. While this does not answer all the complainant’s questions, it would not be proportionate for us to investigate to seek such information.
