My friend (aged 62) had a massive brain haemorrhage in march. It was touch and go at the time and they seriously did not expect her to live but she's pulled through but is now very disabled.
She's been moved from hospital this week to a nh and triggered chc.
They have their three month review in 6weeks time.
Unbelievably they've had no advice on benefits or anything. Just tragic. I've been to see them today and gave them the benefit of my knowledge.
However I'm really worried now she's no longer on a peg that she might fail the review.
Can anyone supply any good advice. She's in a wheelchair. Has a little movement down her right side, none in her left. She has all her marbles and has just started on puréed food. Hasn't been able to stand yet.
She won't score high on behaviour or cognition .
Have they any chance of keeping chc. I'm so worried for her.
It's like she's come so far but they have no idea of what lies ahead re finances. They own their own property.
It's not huge just a modest house.
Hopefully she will get home but will need a bungalow or adaptations.
Also, she is in a place that does rehab and physio ....but is not down to receive any. Yes this beggars belief. Without that she will go back over.
Hope someone can help me point them in the right direction. I don't want to give duff advice
Thanks
