Elizabeth Bow, who suffers from dementia, was visited by her police officer daughter Denise Hobbs.
The 78-year-old is currently living in Aspen Hill Village in Leeds, which has said it is evicting the former nurse because Denise breached visitation policy by trying talk to her frail mother through an open patio door.
Denise told the Daily Express : “My mum is being evicted just because I love her and want to see her.”
The care home have denied any suggestion that Elizabeth is being removed from the home as a ‘revenge eviction’.
Tearful Denise, 53, thinks her mother is yet another victim of the disturbing rise in so-called revenge evictions, which punish families who dare to voice concerns about care standards – a claim the care home denies.
Denise said: “I am anxious, upset, angry and bewildered – we just don’t know where mum is going to go yet. She is aware something is going on but whether she understands…”
Anne, a great-grandmother of 12, worked as an auxiliary nurse at Stirling Hospital in her native Scotland and later in a care home in Scarborough.
She moved into Aspen Hill on April 29 during the height of the Covid crisis after the family was told she could have a room with patio window and visits would be allowed.
