Three former care home workers who mistreated a resident with Alzheimer's disease have been barred for life from working with vulnerable adults.

The abuse was captured on a hidden camera installed at the Granary, near Bristol, by Gladys Wright's family.

Daniel Baynes, Tomasz Gidaszewski and Janusz Salnikow, pleaded guilty to ill-treatment, which took place in 2012.

Baynes also admitted stealing food and was jailed for four months. The others were given community orders.

Salnikow was also given a suspended jail sentence.


Mrs Wright, who was 79 at the time of the abuse, died in March.

Her family family are now calling for cameras to be installed in all care homes.

The camera footage showed her being roughly handled, grabbed by the throat, teased or ignored.




Abuse an elderly woman with alzheimers and get a maximum of 4months in prison.
Wrap some bacon on a mosque's door handle and get 9 or 12months in prison.

My Mum is not very well, if any care worker abused her they would face severe repercussions. Absolute animals treating helpless people badly literally makes my blood boil. Mt B. once the cons know what they are in for they will get their just rewards.

They need cameras in all these care places. Problem is the "profession" of being a careworker is so easy to get into. Any mug can get a job in a care home so you get all kinds of dregs looking after patients. You should be made to get some official qualification before you can work in a care home.
