Ok guys kind of urgent advice needed
Mum has been in a carehome since july, long long story but she failed to get CHC funding and I was told she could have nursing care funding only = i immediately appealed in the july but it has taken to now April before we could be heard.
Today i got a careplan fromt he mental health team, she shows she has been suicidal
it shows she has had behavioral problems but they have signed her off TWO days before the appeal saying they only need to monitor her for her medication.
As far as i know she is on the antipsychotic respiridone - but her meds have bounced aorund os much.
This "lovely" bit of their evidence bumps her behvior down from priority / severe to what?
Can I argue the "well met need" and hte treat a need as if the care wasn't there argument
HELP
This is just another act I feel very cynical about the LA trying to dodge thier duty of care to my mum - did they wait for the appeal until she had settled?
