Hi Bloggers
I contacted the Social Care lady who is looking into the Inaccuracies as they insist on calling these defamatory lies against the family yesterday.
It has now been 2 weeks since the first verbal apology and when I asked regarding a meeting she still stated that she could not see what a meeting at this point would achieve.
I have politely advised her that I can see the relevance of a meeting prior to her undertaking her investigations as it would give a full view of the evidence and issues that were required to be looked into.
This lady has now stated that she would have no problem holding a meeting with the family.
So I have asked if Mr Stuart Poynor and Mrs Kate Bullivant be present.
I suspect yet again that the attendance of Mrs Kate Bullivant Complaints Manager at Staffordshire County Council will not be forthcoming as she has shown continual complacency in the conduct of County Council Staff.
This has highlighted yet again the problems and failings of how these people work.
Like the previous investigations the county council carried out they were all one sided with the emphasis being on what questions that they wanted to answer.
This has been noticed at numerous occasions over the last few years.
When the complaint was first filed with Staffordshire County Council a Mr Robert Roche was continually attempting to change the family questions into questions that were easier to answer and to remove and tweek other questions.
He then went on to state that he "Did not like investigating his own staff"
We had no choice but request an external investigation
This appeared on the surface to be more relevant to the situation.
An apparent independent investigator came out to my home and made notes on what we had endured and the behaviour of the councils employees.
When checking out the background of the apparent independent investigator I found out the following.
The investigator was previously employed by Telford County Council and now has a contact address at Tipping St Stafford same as the County Council, make what you will of that because I have.
I accept that she had been paid for her services but would never state that she was not impartial regarding payment but when you find the address it can make people a little suspicious I would have assumed that she would have had a different address than that of the County Council
The Investigator who was also a barrister went away and interviewed the workers concerned and viewed documents including my grandfather social care folder and other defamatory invented data.
The investigator fails to validate any information given to her although statements made to her do not match up with what the social workers have wrote on the viewed care file.
And further do not match up with what information she had gained from the family.
The rest was history and signed of by Chief Executive Stuart Poynor as an outcome with a short acknowledgement that we were right in bringing the complaint, although they had effectively shoved all the main reasons for the complaint under the rug.
The blatent lies have now been found and hopefully by the intervention of the Information commissioner this will stop this practice of lies within the local social care team and protect innocent and vulnerable eldery and there families.
I can only assume that the reasons surrounding the time-scales taken to resolve or to even acknowledge failure at the Mid Staffordshire hospital Trust could have possibly been the same where families were demanding answers and those that should be tasked with dealing with complaints were possibly been ignorant of the facts or attempting to tweek the complaints of the general public.
