i am need to remove myself from the family home after 30years of marriage.
My husband is a person with quadriplegia and a Brain injury.
My husband has 24/7 care due to his disability. His injury happened 8 years ago.
Over the years my husband has been sexually inappropriate with care workers on numerous occasions. I thought it was due to his brain injury- which is why I somewhat tolerated the behaviour. There has just been another incident- which is when I was informed that it is a physiological problem- nothing to do with his brain.
I told everyone involved, which is a lot of medical people, insurance company and the care agency and my husband, that this problem could be easily resolved if he only had male care workers.
The Neuropsychologist has advised that he has the capacity to make decisions for himself regardless of whether they are good or bad decisions.
My husband refuses to have male care workers and the care agency is ok sending females here to be harassed. I was also informed that my husband is the one that is liable. Which also puts me at risk.
I can no longer be part of this situation and I need to remove myself from the family home.
How is it possible for this to be ok?
And is there anything legally for me to do???
