And so the story continues
Dad getting very aggressive - Mum at end of tether
I called for the very first time, the emergency SS team - Mum not coping she now feels its time to talk permanent care home residency.
DTT team said that they will see if Respite can be brought forward
I have just spoken to SS ( I called them having waited all morning and had a quick tea break)
Apparently my dad does not fit the criteria!!! for residential
Can someone explain this - What is the criteria?
brief outline 9 years a dementia sufferer, 80 year old mum still has him at home ( doing sterling job) Delusions, sundowning, hoarding, pacing, hardly eats unless mashed up, personal care shot, wearing inappropriate clothes, aggressive, unable to cope without mum. Mum exhausted - only two full nights sleep since Christmas
Please help, anyone
Regards
