Good evening everyone can you help please would be most appreciated. My dad has gone into a care home with mixed dementia mum handled all the finances. No power of attorney no wills nothing just joint bank accounts. My mum has passed away quickly and unexpectedly. I have just started the process of guardianship and appointee for dwp pension. The problem I have is LA were funding part of dad's care home fees but now mam's savings have automatically passed to dad he will be over the threshold and becomes a self funder again that in itself isn't a problem but the bank won't release any money won't pay care home bills or allow me access to pay them. I don't know what will happen now as even if I get appointee ship from dwp it's nowhere near enough to pay the fee. They do have property but that has passed to dad with me and my brother co,-owners how can the bills be paid for the care home it is stresing me out and no time to think about mam. Many thanks
