When that is completed im looking into doing all the related courses (HACC and the like) and possibly going into EN. Oh and just so you know its My birthday In a week or so : ) Anyway I need help with a problem at the place im doing my work experience at. 2 of the people im working with who have slight dementia are being kept apart by their families AND the staff .... call me crazy but this doesnt seem right they actually physically keep them away from each other and have threatened to send the male away from the Home. The staff just.... accept this ......... im at a loss for words Plz help
