Dear All,
I am currently in the process of appealing the NHS continuing healthcare for my mother who has Alzheimer's. I've been recommended to find an independent clinical assessor, but having a hard time locating someone. Has anyone used someone like this for their appeal. My mother and I are based in north west London.
The other issue is that I know that I will have to defend my home (half of which I own, mother owns other half) from the council taking it to pay for fees. Would anyone be able to recommend a) a valuer who is aware of CRAG and b) would I need a lawyer, or is it possible to fight without one?
Unfortunately, I have become very wary of people trying to take advantage of someone who is a vulnerable situation, so really appreciate any advice from people who have been through the same situation. Many thanks.
