Social Worker (Episode 7508)

An unnamed Social Worker from Children's Social Care visited the Thomas family in May 2016 after dementia suffering Ashley Thomas accidentally left his eight year old son Arthur at Hotten General Hospital. Ashley's wife, and Arthur's mother, Laurel Thomas questioned the need for a social worker visit and assures her the events of the previous day were a one off as they would never let Arthur come to any harm. The social worker assured Ashley she wan't trying to limit the time he spent with Arthur, but recommended that a third party should be present when Ashley is looking after him.
