My nan has had dementia for years and a LPA was made (both financial and health) with her partner and daughter being made attorneys. She has been in a care home for 14 weeks and her partner has now decided that he wants her back home. The decision was made without consulting the other attorney or any family members. He was (and still is) severely depressed and couldn't cope at all when he cared for her at home and it would not be in her best interest to move her as she is settled and cared for. We have been told to hold a best interest meeting and to take him off the LPA on the basis of that it is not the right decision for my nan and he is mentally unfit to make such decision /care for her. His doctor has also expressed her agreement to this.
Has anyone had a similar situation? If so, was it successful and what is the best way to go about resolving it?
Many thanks.
