Hi
my father in law has had to go in to a home after a bad stroke. He is receiving letters in the home and cannot read and take in the information. Mum had to go to an appointment for his assessment and had to get a taxi . when she got there the meeting had been cancelled. she said couldnt you have rang and let me know. They said no as its confidential.
Her case worker said the best thing you can do is to get power of attorney, that way everything will go to you and you will know everything thats going on.
She rang a solicitor and they told it will cost her £1200!!!!!!!!!!!! Is this right? mum cant afford money like that. She has rang in tears really worried about it all. She is already worried as they said she may have to put money towards the home she only gets 58 pension. They own their own house.
Any help please
thanks nannie ali
