maybe there wouldn't be so many call outs if local social works wouldn't lie in their files about the people they are "supporting" so when they turn else where for help they get declined, my local social work team have left me 11 days with no food this time around and iv only been able to bathe 5 times in over 10 months due to their lack of care and I'm in the glasgow area, edit local social work have left me to starve to death nhs 24 and out of hours social work are not willing to help
Doctors mental heath nurses psychiatrists all tell lies in your medical records so wrong out of order
maybe there wouldn’t be an increase if you actually helped them instead of throwing them into mental hospital. breaking down the door would quite literally give someone in mental distress more anxiety.
You need a 4th Emergency service; and not the AA.
Call them the National Society Service give them soon to be retired ambulances. Train them to Frec 3, make them all PCSOs or specials, and give them a lot of mental health and drunken behaviour training.
Many people who were quite sane yesterday have been freaked out by the shocking way we are being ruled .
So why are the SNP not funding the police adequately?
It's no the police need funding it's mental health and health and social care support in the community ect .
If it were he horrific, national disgrace Falkirk Police they would show ZERO DUTY OF CARE to anyone but perpetrators of crime. Falkirk Police are a National Shame and all should be sacked and investigated, but wont happen as the SNP have created a lawless Falkirk Police Force. You sill get XERO help or duty of care as a victim from Falkirk Police, in fact they will make it extremely hard for the victims but do nothing about Perpetrators.
