Do I really need a SS financial assessment for my Mum. She owns her own home and has about £40k of savings. Social Services organised her current Care Agency which will be funded by my Mum. The letter arrived today and states that they will need to see her Bank statements and want to know all about her expenses, gas, electricity, water etc. What, if anything, will she gain from one of these. It feels like an invasion of privacy Thank you for any comments xx
