Good morning
I wonder whether anyone can advise me on this? I have an old style Enduring Power of Attorney for mum, which was registered with the OPG in January 2014.
Obviously this only covers financial matters. Since mum has been in hospital, several nurses have asked me whether I have Health and Welfare POA. It is my impression that if I did, it might open doors to easier communication.
Prior to registration I was advised by a solicitor that H & W LPA wasn't worth applying for. He may have been wrong!
I am assuming that it's too late to apply, now that mum's lack of capacity is registered under EPA. Am I right? Any advice gratefully received.
Thanks
