Can I claim the monthly costs for a Special Care Home? My spouse was put into a Special Care Home in 2017. Do I claim the dependent care?

Yes, you may claim your spouse's attendant care costs as medical expenses.

But where, he is entitled to the disability amount and the calculation for attendant care expenses in a nursing home.  Don't see anywhere those numbers can be entered.  Must I find a form that does this?

You enter your attendant care expenses under - Deduction- Medical expenses.
