Hello everyone I am new to the forum.
I think my mother has dementia, she cannot remember conversations, cannot use computerised telephone systems and is continually withdrawing cash. I have done clinical research in this area and suspect she is stage 3
She has a morning carer following a fall and broken hip. I do not know if she has had a GP assessment or memory tests. We do not get on and she will not discuss her health with me. She falls regularly but never tells me. She has a Careline pendant but I took myself off the contact list as I cannot physically assist her and am not willing to support her
I will be frank I do not get on with her, we frequently argue and after 10 minutes with her i want to smack her, I never have as I have enough self awareness to leave. She refuses to go into care and I refuse to support her in her home. If asked to do so I would cite it as a safeguarding issue. I have a financial LPA but refused to take on a health and welfare LPA.
I am an only child and about to move away from the area . I do her shopping weekly and give her cash. I suspect she won't manage without me nearby. Can I force a GP assessment?
