Social chief comments on neglect at Edshultsgården care home: 'Must absolutely not happen again'

Staff at Edshultsgården in Leksand have submitted two Lex Sarah reports regarding neglect of residents.

One resident at the dementia-focused care home Edshultsgården did not shower for six weeks according to one of the reports.

Another resident's room constituted a sanitary nuisance according to the second report.

Social chief Jasmin Löf says the focus now is that this absolutely must not happen again.
