Hello everyone this is my first post here. My lovely Mum is 86, in a Residential Home in Wales and in the late stages of Alzheimer's for the last year or so. Mum is permanently in bed and completely dependant on the care home staff for all of her needs, including feeding. Her care costs (£3,600 per month) are deducted from her savings and so far this amounts to roughly £140,000. I have Power of Attorney over her Health & Welfare and also Finances and I have only just found out today about NHS Continuing Care and that she may be eligible. I'm partway through the 64 page information booklet on it which mentions this forum.
I'd love to hear any pointers or advice from any of you who have experience or knowledge about NHS Continuing Care and the best way for me to move forwards with applying.
Thanks so much in advance. Mary x
