Why would she not get help with her mortgage? have you done an entitlement calc for Pension credit, taking in the mortgage interest?
She is joint owner of the property with her husband - I assume she has power of attorney because her husband won't be able/allowed to sign. If it were to be sold, then half of the equity realised would be his, and used to pay for his permanent care. Because she would have the other 50%, she would possibly have to pay full rent & CT in sheltered accomodation.
