Residency in Dementia Care Home

By  Ellen Bell 2018
Eighth day of my residency at the Home and I continue to be fascinated by the interactions between residents. What you doing, boy? booms a Swansea voice. A wee bird of a woman. I dunno, says the man picking his nose. Get yourself a chair, she orders. He sits. Found one? she asks. Yes, he says. Is it a CHAIR? she shouts.
