My mum has alzheimers and broke her hip on 7th December. She has been in hospital since then. We have been told she has to go into a care home and this will have to be paid for by the sale of her house. the only problem is is that this is the only home of my brother, who is 51. He has been mum's only carer for the last 5 years and has paid all the bills etc. He has always lived with my mum and it looks like he will be made homeless in order to pay for the care home.
At the moment he is disputing the assessment of continuing care, he says that as long as he disputes this mum will be in hospital and the house will not be sold. My mum can no longer walk, doubly incontinent, does not recognise anyone, cannot feed her self, cannot communicate at all. How much worse does she have to be to get continuing care?
Can anyone give any advice. thanks
