Kath Hope, 85, endured a 'traumatising' move after her home suddenly closed amid funding issues.

The daughters of an elderly dementia sufferer who was forced to move after her care home closed have told of their family's ordeal and said homes “shouldn’t be treated like businesses”.

“She is not the same person, she's just crying all the time, she's distressed. She's had three infections.” Speaking about her mother's condition, Ms Watson, who previously cared for her for 20 years, said: “The new care home manager has actually said it's all down to the stress of the move - she's traumatised by it.”

Ms Hope said "these are the most vulnerable of people" in society and care homes “shouldn't be treated like businesses".
