A care home in Clydebank is under investigation after a carer photographed an 85‑year‑old dementia patient partially naked and shared the image. The resident’s daughter condemned the act as a violation and praised the whistleblower who revealed it. Kingsacre Care Home suspended the worker and confirmed they are no longer employed. Alzheimer Scotland stressed the importance of whistleblowing to protect vulnerable residents. Despite the incident, the family plans to keep the woman in the home, while seeking stricter phone policies for staff. Authorities continue to investigate, and the Scottish Social Services Council will assess fitness to practise if necessary.
