register with your local carers organisation and get a carers assessment. You will then get help with the discharge procedure and many other things. It is a bit of a post code lottery as to how much support each district offers. You could also have a care need assessment for your dad and of course your mother should have one before being discharged. Make sure you are involved in everything to do with your mother's care. The hospitals are good at deciding without telling you. I take it you have POA. Stay strong, eat and rest well, you will need your strength.
