Also, check with your local council as there's a lot of support that is not well publicised (particularly for making modifications to your home - which can lead to reduced council tax bills). Unfortunately GPs often don't seem to be aware of what is available - it could be worth talking to your local hospice (even if you aren't end of life) as they tend to be much more clued in.
- zabzonk 4y agothe last time i was in hospital, last summer, the only way of getting out was to agree to pay for home care myself - nhs-funded care was simply not available due to a chronic staff shortage. people needing care were stuck on wards for weeks - the so-called bed-blockers. i'm not complaining about the nhs here - in general the help and treatment i've received has been exemplary.
