My husband who has Alzheimer’s will probably have to go into full time residential care in the next few months.
I have had a financial assessment and know I have to contribute his pension, the daily living part of his Pip, and half of his private pension to the LA by direct debit 4 weekly after his weekly allowance of £30.15 is deducted. The rest of his care will be funded by LA.
I will need to manage the rest of his income, but should I open a new account to keep everything separate?
He will keep the mobility part of his Pip and has an allowance for personal expenses. Am I supposed to keep records of his expenditure and receipts where possible?
Also is there guidance on what I can use the mobility part of his pip for? I have LPA I should add.
