<div>Hi folks We had our first meeting last Wed. - Jan 13th at usual time 6pm.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We thought before we arrange any more, we'd ask if there's a better time or day.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>We're very keen to make these meetings open to everyone so please get back if you would like a change. 'phone or e-mail 07811185610</div>
<div> </div>
<div> </div>
<div>If we don't hear we'll continue on a 2 weekly basis Wed. 6pm at City Chambers from 27th Jan </div>
<div> </div>
<div>As always, sadly, we hear of difficulties with the private sector.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>One elderly woman who was given care from the private sector, was regularly not visited; carers were late - hours late. And on 3 occasions within a week the carers had not been given the keysafe no..</div>
<div> </div>
<div>However we discussed the earlier article re. carehomes seeming to have a preference for residents who are fed through a tube in their stomachs.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>I'm very glad to report that there is no evidence that this practice is happening in Edinburgh.</div>
<div> </div>
<div>Regards Marlyn</div>
