My father in law is 66 years old and has lived by him self for 3 years as his wife passed away, however recently he has been getting a lot worst. I think he is self neglecting as he has not had a wash in a year, his house is awful he has no heating on and no tv just lyes in bed all day. He also has serious heart conditions which he should be on medication for and he has not took any of these tablets for a number of months. He will not go and see any doctor but I feel that he needs to go in a home, its awful that someone is neglecting themselve in this way, would a doctor be able to put them into a home under these reasons
