## Description
This Oldham resident has a diagnosis of advanced Alzheimer's Dementia and has been living with this condition since 2021. They are at a stage now where they require a placement that can meet and manage their complex needs, as they require 3 - 4 staff members with safe hold training to manage any type of intervention.
They have been on an Older People's Mental Health ward since July 2025 and had treatment for their condition. The resident has now been assessed as fully optimised regarding their mental and physical health and they have been ready for discharge, since September 2025. 
This placement is required due to the level of specialist care this resident needs, I approached several placements in and around Oldham, some placements stated they had no availability, some said they had residents with a similar type of presentation and others stated they could not meet their required needs. Acer Mews were recommended via Church Walk, Rochdale who had no availability but are under the same company Exemplar Care. Acer Mews were able to go to the ward and assesses, this resulted in the resident being accepted with the additional wants / wishes from the family as the resident requires a smaller unit (only 15 places on unit), spacious and has various 'quiet spaces' that meet this resident's needs.
As such this placement was deemed to be the right environment for them and their family agreed. It was felt that delaying the discharge would not be in the persons best interests, and to proceed with this placement rather than commence sourcing an alternative placement via the GM Framework as this would take a further two months to be discharged whilst the GM framework is followed. This is in line with the discharge planning from the multidisciplinary meeting on the ward, and family's wishes and is person centred and resident focused.
The placement at Acer Mews is in a good travelling distance from the resident's wife who has daily contact with her husband. It is important that she keeps these links with the resident as they have just celebrated their 60th wedding anniversary. 
The wife is happy with the proposed placement, and she is distraught at the prospect of a further delay, keeping her husband on the ward and having to look at another placement, when they have already accepted the placement prior to the allocated worker being mh.ade aware of the GM framework.
To note, as the Oldham resident has been ready for discharge from the ward for some time, he remains vulnerable due to the risk from acutely unwell patients he currently resides with.
