Well today i've been told that my husband now needs 24hr nursing care. To think that 5 months ago he flew to London for a day out. I haven't had much Social Work help at only getting 10hrs a week. The Social Worker said we will do a financil assesment now for full time nursing home care. This worries me as i know they will take half his pension and half the joint account and will leave me with not enough to pay the bills. The last thing i want is threatening letters because of the Social Work. Who haven't cared at all. iT Also it also confuses me what the NHS continuing care as i have read about it and it says that Dementia suffers should meet the criteria for it. Yet the consultant says he doesn't come under the criteria yet it was said he needs 24hr nursing care. I was told today as well he has fontal lobe dementia. They think the seizures are now under control. He isn't stable he has deterioated fast in 5 months, and more so the last 2 months.
I'm all mixed up
