NHS Continuing Healthcare to be Featured on BBC Radio 4’s Inside Health Programme

[Lena99]

I'm not sure they have shut down completely - the web page still says they aren't currently able to take referrals. Having said that, it's not much help to the OP. The page does give a list of groups that might be able to help though, so I'm going to give a link to that page anyway.




Thanks Jennifer, I had already seen that and put in a call to the CAB. They have referred me on so I will see what happens but I'm not expecting much........................

CHC Funding

I never saw the CHC assessment list for my step mother as she died within a week of entering care.
From what I was told she only scored severe for behaviour and I have to agree that was the main problem by far.
She did not have many falls etc.
What I suggest happened was some discretion had to be used as it was clear she could not be let out because of the strong possibility she could have killed a child.
The main reason she had to be locked away was to protect the public and to some extent herself.
It was not reasonable any of the family or myself should have been expected to pay basically to protect other peoples children.

Hi N S Rosy, I did as you suggested and it says 'no messages', it must have got lost in the post!
