National Care Home Open Day aims to connect care homes with their local communities and challenge long-standing prejudices about residential care.
Mike Weatherley, the Conservative MP for Hove and Portslade, is taking part in the National Care Home Open Day, which will be held on Friday, June 20, by visiting a care home in Hove where he hopes to highlight that the headlines around residential care too often focus on care failures and rarely on the daily successes.
Mike said: “Care homes play an enormously important role in looking after elderly and vulnerable residents across the country. I hope that by visiting a care home in Hove I’ll be able to discuss some of the issues facing both staff and residents and highlight some of the great work that care homes do for our communities.”
