My mother and Father both need a needs assessment by the social services as we are getting to the stage where we need some extra help with their care.
They live in rented accomodation having sold their house. They now have only savings which are divided between them.
They probably have more than 23000 each. Will they have to pay for all their care themselves? Initially, we will need carers coming in twice a day we think, and we will continue with washing, taking them out , being on call in the night etc
It seems such an injustice that people with dementia have to fund their own care. Will they lose everything?
