We are sadly looking at respite for my dad with a view for a permanant move into a lovely care home providing Dementia Care.
Mum will stay in the house but they have over the threshold of savings so will have to self fund.
Mum is obviously terrified of not being left with enough to live on. Dad has other complex health issues on top of his Vascula Dementia .. Heart Failure, Stenosis of the spine, lack of mobilty so needs help with toileting and showering etc.
My question is, would dad qualify for NHS-funded nursing care whilst in the care home ?
Any help or advice gratefully received
