Thanks for your comment. The GP would be best placed to comment on your father's individual circumstance or provide the type of confirmation you're looking for.
In the meantime, you may benefit from calling our Dementia Connect support line on 0333 150 3456 to speak with one of our dementia advisers.

You might also find it useful to speak to other people who are going through similar situations in our online community, Talking Point.
