Hi all,
My mom is in the later stages and is cared for by my dad. She has a carer each morning except at the weekend. Mom also attends a day centre twice a week. We have a review meeting today with the social worker involved. My dad has experienced mental health issues over the years and I can see signs of this returning with the stress of caring for mom. Her behaviour is becoming more aggressive towards him and others at the day centre. I would welcome any suggestions/ advice as my dad is a difficult character to deal with as he refuses to accept mom's condition and it's implications, plus any idea of her possibly going into a home because of the funding side of this. Thanks!
