Hello, this is my first post. My mum has dementia and is being cared for at home by one of my sisters who has decided to move in with her - I have been trying to gain access to my mum but the doors are locked with key in the other side and when I have tried to phone / text I get no response - my other sister is allowed in and says that I need to contact social services - I have always had a good relationship with my mum - unlike the sister who is now looking after her :-( I feel that she is taking control of her but don't know where to turn - my other sister says I should speak to SS as they will take into account 'past history' ie: the previous incidents with my sister/lack of care before she had dementia ... all I want us to be able to spend some quality time with my mum while she still knows who I am :-( ps: my mother has been assessed and has capacity - there is no LPA or POA as far as I know
