Evening all, myself and my brother are in need of advice. Our dad was diagnosed with alzhiemers last november and due to covid we are struggling with gettinh any help also my brother had to move back home recently which also isn't helping us get support but he will be moving out soon. We are worried about various aspects of dads safety
Dad's in a 3 bedroom house which he has already fallen down. He's cooking meals but not cooking them right, this evening he has eaten chicken that wasn't cooked right and got really upset when my brother told him not to eat it. We are waiting a visit from an occupational therapist but they are only seeing emergencies. He's very reluctant to move and doesn't want anyone going to the house has he beleives he doesn't need help. We feel at a lose as to what to do as everyone we speak to doesnt seem to be able to help at the minute or feel we don't need help with my brother been there but he works full time
