I've recently been appointed a deputy for my dad. When I applied he was living at home with 4 care visits a day. But by the time I became a deputy he had had to go into a care home.
The deputy order specifically excludes me selling his house which I'm going to need to do in the next year or so to continue to pay his care fees - he is self funding and a widower.
Do i have to do the whole COP application process again to get the order amended or is there some kind of simpler procedure hopefully costing less?
Thanks for any and all advice
