Hello
I might have asked this before but I am not sure
My husband is in a care home and has been since mid October
He hasn’t been officially diagnosed with dementia but he has got it
He certainly has delirium
I am not completely happy with the care home , for instance , it’s a battle to get him hoisted out of bed ( he has no mobility at the moment but has started private physio at the care home)
He gets fed up of being in bed and I can sympathise
I feel that if I don’t go and see him , he will be left in his room all day
I can’t go and see him every single day although I do go most days
He keeps saying he wants to go home , I try to explain to him that he can’t ‚yet‘ but he doesn’t seem to get it
I haven’t got LPA .
So my question is : can I remove him from the care home , take him back home and arrange for carers to come and help
At the moment, he is chc funded
I would be grateful for comments/advice/tips to handle this situation
Thank you
