Mum was assessed and awarded full CHC funding in July 2015.
We have had 3 reviews since then and funding has continued to be awarded.
At the last review (25th July 2017) the recommendation was that funding should be removed. The person said this was due to the fact that as mums dementia has progressed she is now less 'difficult' to manage, and that the care home have put things in place to manage mum and reduce chances of accidents etc.
As a family we are gutted, we cannot believe that they could remove funding as mums dementia gets worse. She practically sleeps all day, cannot walk without the aid of 2 people, can only feed herself finger food and only when prompted, is drastically under weight (BMI 15) - the list goes on - she has deteriorated significantly since her first assessment so we cannot understand why funding would be removed.
I have not been given a copy of the last assessment or official reasons for removal - I have asked for copies and when I received them will start to prepare an appeal.
Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
