Hello all,
My mother in law has Alzheimer’s and vascular dementia. She is currently in a residential home. Last week she had a nursing assessment and they’ve decided she needs nursing care. They said it would be FNC.
I think she is self funding... or partially. Basically she keeps about £100 a month of her state pension. She lost her attendance allowance when she went into the residential home so I’m guessing she is partly funded.
So my question is... will funded nursing care pay for all her care home fees other than top up fees? Or will they still take her pension and expect my father in law to pay the top up fees? Thanks in advance
