Hi . My mom has mixed Vascular dementia and Alzheimer’s. We share my home and I am her unpaid Carer. She is 94 and is getting progressively worse, to the point I’m considering places her in a Care home. This is due to the fact she won’t accept Carer’s coming into the home so I can’t get out , or go away for a break on my own. I’m mentally, emotionally and physically exhausted suffering Carer’s burnout.
I believe if a person has more than £23000 in their bank account, they have to pay for their own care In a Care home. Is this correct ? Can anyone tell me would it be up to me to pay the Care home on a monthly basis, using mom‘s money ? If so what happens if or when her money runs out ?
I hope someone can answer these questions for me. Thanks in advance.
