Mum with dementia aged 83 father 83 is caring for her at home with no outside help at all has reached breaking point and can not cope with her aggression and total incontinence, she is totally incapable of doing anything for herself and can barely shuffle from chair to wheelchair she is 100% dependant on Dad, we have spoken with adult safeguarding team at social services today and arranged an emergency assessment for Wed and hopefully emergency respite care. The people I spoke to were very kind and helpful and listened to all I had to say and answered my questions but I was a little concerned that they kept going back to finances and about how much mum had in bank and joint bank. We don't know
how much money they have but know they may have some savings ,please can I ask can anyone advise me, what they may be entitled to and what questions should I ask when they do the assessment and financial checks.
