I am awaiting the start of the full CHC assessment for my father who has been in a nursing home since Jan 2022 after being discharged from hospital under the Discharge to Assess process.

Does anyone have any positive or negative experience with CHC funding advocates? So far I have only come across Beacon and Compass.
