Fair Deal Scheme Question

Hi ALL, My mam has been told that she must pay 1056 p/week having calculated her assets, pension and value of her house. Approx 480 of this is seen as value of the house, my question is how is she meant to pay this or how is it deducted if the candy isn't there? Like the house is where she lives alone … how are we meant to…

Hi ALL,
My mam has been told that she must pay 1056 p/week having calculated her assets, pension and value of her house. Approx 480 of this is seen as value of the house, my question is how is she meant to pay this or how is it deducted if the candy isn't there? Like the house is where she lives alone … how are we meant to get this money? Or is this deducted from her life savings… 1056 p/w is a hell of a lot of money and surely isn't far off cost of privately paying for a nursing home which would mean shed continue to get her pension and her house wouldn't be deducted. Its all very stressful and worrying
Any advice would be great
