Autistic Son's Family left livid amid care home's closing

An Autistic Families Son, Daniel, aged 45, no longer has Hollyrood Care Home to help him because they have closed amid 'financial difficulties'.

Daniel's parents have claimed the care home's managers 'intentionally deceived them' after their plans to close were released.

The family of 45-year-old Daniel are said to be 'desperate' to find him a new, and suitable care home.

Many of the patients relatives said the outcome of the closure will be 'very damaging'.

Daniel's Mum, Louisa Spivack, said: "We're extremely angry, and we feel that we've been deliberately misled. We knew the site needed improvement. We were wanting to be kept informed, but we kept being fobbed off."

The Care Home had fifty-five employees, and fourteen patients.

The Care Home said: "They tried to keep the centre open, but failed to do so amid failing to find a new buyer."

"The decision wasn't taken lightly. As a charity, we have to effectively manage our assets, and over the last four years, and beyond, the Hollyrood service has lost money. We have continued to invest in the service, but the building is simply not fit for purpose," said Chief executive, Irene Sobowale.

The Care Home said "they must leave the site by #November time" amid their 'unsuccessful attempts' to find a buyer.

Daniel's mum said "Daniel finds change incredibly challenging, and difficult".

Daniel has #Autism, and #Epilepsy.
