    Fair Deal/Nursing Homes Nomination on credit union account, fair deal question

    Hi, I am filling in form for fair deal for my Mum. She has nominated people on her credit union account. Do I include these in the fair deal application too, are they treated like a joint account ? So does that mean half the balance will be considered in the calculation? Thanks
