Well as injuries extensive and liable to be off work sometime she will need to return to work in a phased manner and theefore will receive only payment for what she works say two to three mornings first week etc

atrixblue.-MFR-.

after SSP she can claim contribution based ESA.

if she is going to require care on a daily basis and home bound then go on to have long and lenghy process of rehabilitation physically then she should claim DLA.

what kind of mortgage protection does she have.

sound like she had a nasty accident and i hope she recovers, pass on our love, and hope she has a steady recovery.
