Bearsden care home resident allowed to eat breakfast with faeces on her hands

A Bearsden care home resident was allowed to eat breakfast with faeces on their hands.

Care Assistant Kevin Hollett didn't clean the pensioner's hands of faeces at Westerton Care Home in March 2020. Hollett then let the resident, 'AA' have breakfast knowing the mess had not been removed.

The staff member's behaviour was slammed as 'serious and degrading' by the Scottish Social Services Council (SSSC). A warning to stay on his registration for a period of 12 months came into effect as of July 12.
