People are being asked to rent out rooms in their home for patients coming out of hospital. The scheme, run by a private company, is being trialled in Stockport.
Potential hosts will need a spare room and time for a cup of tea and a chat with their guests - whose stay can last up to 14 nights. Lizzie Gaudin, chief operations officer at CareRooms.com said: “We are trying to help set up modern day convalescence in communities like Stockport where resources are being stretched to their limits. People lose confidence after being ill, especially if they have no support at home, or they may be younger and a nursing home with elderly residents may not be appropriate for that transition period between hospital and home.
“For hosts, the greatest satisfaction lies in supporting others and offering companionship to create communities that care,” she added.
Why not put them up in hotel rooms.. oh sorry.... wait. 🙄🙄🙄
What has this country come to? Fucking hell.
