One resident was showing signs of depression, having difficulty engaging and Andrea noticed the resident was sucking on her food. Andrea tactfully asked why this was and discovered the resident’s teeth were missing and her gums were very sore. She spoke honestly to the resident about the importance of getting a dental appointment and shared her own personal stories which gave the resident the confidence to visit the dentist. Andrea also arranged for the resident to visit their mum who was in a care home and took a photo of them together to keep in their rooms as a keep’s sake.
