Has anyone got experience of this , mum is in an EMI Carehome, ont he nursing floor - she has been granted nursing care funding but is deemed self funding for the social aspect.
Mum didn't have POA - was an emergency admission to hospital i now finally have COP and they want to do a financial assessment.
DO I have to have one, am not paying anything YET as COP has just come through,
Do I have to let them scour her "assets" or can i just pay the fees until I need to ask for reassessment, shes not likely to fall below the level as she has her own home, savings.
Just to be clear am not trying to get out of paying - although I have appealed their decision as mums really poorly and has had a couple of strokes since the initial assessment - but can i just take over the paying of the fees and not have to endure this assessment
