Shameful verbal attack by the 'care manager' towards people in the local community trying to help an elderly man. She refused to even call an ambulance or lend a wheelchair.

Very negative attitude towards the care of the elderly, refusing to provide any assistance to an old gentleman who was clearly in need. The centre managers attitude was appalling.
