Hi,
Both my parents are in the early stages of Alzheimer's. My mum is forgetful but other than this is fully mobile. My dad is diabetic and has insulin twice a day administered by district nurse. Carers come in 4 times a day to prompt medication, meals and cleaning. He recently had a TIA and seizure. He has to use a walking frame round the house and they both now sleep downstairs. He is fully aware of what is going on. My sister and I live local and most days we visit and do things that are needed. We have been asked to a meeting with social services and district nursing team. I think they are going to suggest that they go into a care home. My parents will not want this and neither will we. What are our rights.
Thank you.
