Petition Make NHS Continuing Nursing care actually available to patients who NEED it!

More details

NHS Continuing Healthcare is the golden apple we hear about but which is seldom granted. The whole process is guaranteed to put off all. It the most determined. Checklist gone through, DST arranged and then funding turned down after gruelling meeting which did not take into account real need.
It's no use our PM setting dementia targets.... What about those who have dementia plus other conditions, are told they need nursing care home but do not qualify. Yet again, Budgets are governing care - to those who have worked, Paid their dues and saved.
