Im so so so angry.
Mum was granted NHS continued healthcare last year. Her alzheimers was pretty bad and she had a variety of other health needs.
At the one year review (which I was assured would be a formality) the health professional actually told me he recommended a continuance as mums condition had deteriorated so much (and he has recommended it on the form).
I have just received the decision by our CCG and Im astounded to say they have refused!
She has 1 severe and 6 high. She has now been determined to have clinical malnutrition and a complexity of health care needs. Needs prompting and continued chivvying to eat & take medication, needs considerable assistance to get up, dress, wash, toilet (doubly incontinent), despite medication is delusional, seeks inapproriate contact with men (any men), thinks her dead parents visit her.....
And the CCG have stated we did not find that you have a primary healthcare need at this time.
Naturally I will appeal it, but I need to vent....and I need advice.
