The family of a man with Alzheimer's fear he is at risk of a dangerous fall, because he is having to wait months for a nursing home. Brian Witherspoon, 86, from Bath moved to a residential home in March 2024 but carers say his risk of falling means he needs more specialist care. He has had to wait three months for an assessment by social services and his step-daughter, Stephanie, said if an application for "continuing healthcare" funding is not successful, the family will have to find the excess themselves.
