— "In my judgment, FH requires the protection of the court at this stage to ensure that she does not return, at this stage, I emphasise, to the home which she shares with her husband and into his primary care. I am satisfied that the local authority has made out its case for an order which will ensure that FH remains at Dewsbury Hospital until she is fit for discharge, and that upon that stage being reached in her recovery, that she then be transferred to a care home, probably HH Care Home, for the immediate future. I am satisfied that where it is necessary, it is indeed proportionate for modest forms of restraint to be used to ensure that FH is enabled to make that journey and then remain at the care home.
