I'm new here and seeking help for a family member with regards to section 117.
Family member has been in a dementia care home facility for a few months and has recently had a DOLS section 117 (I think).
Currently self funded but my question is, would this person now be entitled to care home fees being paid by the LA in their area (they will also be undergoing a CHC assessment soon)?
Thank you in advance.
