#HeadlineTherapy Woman detoxed alone in B&B after failing to access local treatment.

Thanks to Conor McCann at BBC News Online for the Headline

Welcome to Britain guys, not only can we not supply a secure method of frail, people having a pendant system to ring for help if they need it , but we’re sending those at risk at their own expense to spend time in a B&B going Cold Turkey in order for them to participate in a detoxification programme run by a local Charity.

Sounds incredulous, so just where is all the Social Services and Health Care Budget going? Why is this happening? What kind of economy do we have that B&B’s need to turn into facilities for those needing to detox, probably not what the owner was planning to provide for, but bless them for allowing the person to go through this difficult period with them. I do believe from the article it was a success and the help I suppose came from an unexpected but nevertheless valuable quarter. Mind you if word got around , would the B&B owner lose their regular and holiday customers?
