Dad was diagnosed with Alzheimer's last year. Step mums memory is rapidly going down and I'm going to the doctors next week
No help has ever been offered to dad after diagnosis just pills. They are both on lots of meds which I sorrted with the chemist to be in weekly blister packs but they keep forgetting to take them
They could do with someone going daily to check on them, maybe an hour a day. Non of us are that close to be able to do that. Who's best to contact for this? I don't know if it should be the council, age concern for advice or what? They don't have attendance allowance or anything and dad just seems to have been forgotten after the initial checks
Thanks
