Revelations from care home managers 'on the front-line'.
Care home managers
Below is an extended highlights compilation of incredible and unreported care home manager testiomony from the world’s only official COVID-19 inquiry to reveal what really took place during lockdown.
Featured are Independent care homes Scotland (ICHS). Central Scotland care homes and Erskine (Bishopton) care homes (Haig house only). Overall these homes represent around 20% of all care homes in Scotland. The Erskine complex (of which Haig House is just one of six houses) suffered the highest COVID-19 death toll of all care homes in Scotland. (34 deaths ‘involving’ the disease over the first 15 months of the ‘pandemic’ for which NRS data is made available).
What has been stated:
No ‘COVID testing’ in care homes for COVID during main lockdown period Mar-end of May 2020.
‘Massive’ deterioration of residents’ health solely due to the restrictions.
No hospital care for sick residents whilst in lockdown.
No in person GP visits.
No dentists for 2 years.
‘A push on’ by the NHS to issue DNACPR notices to care homes.
Care home managers at odds with the NHS over blanket DNACPR policy.
GPs were issuing end of life medications to 90% of residents over the telephone regardless of symptoms.
Other health conditions didn’t exist during lockdown only COVID.
Managers unsure if residents were actually passing away with COVID.
Why is this not bigger news?

“GPs were issuing end of life medications to 90% of residents over the telephone”. Who are these people? All it took was one phone call to end someone’s life, was the resident experiencing a cough, maybe a persistent discomfort in their chest or was feeling anxious and fearful it obviously didn’t matter the response was the same - end of life care - which means midazolam and morphine. The GPs would have sentenced the resident to death without having seen them or having looked them in their eyes. Was age a terminal medical condition? It would seem so.
You are doing phenomenal work and it's appalling that this is not being reported in the mainstream 'news'.
