Needs Assessment and Care Plans

A Needs Assessment is carried out by Local Care Services prior to the delivery of care. This is carried out with you and your family or next of kin.

Following your Needs Assessment, we will agree your Care and Support Plan with you and your family. Care and Support Plans confirm what time you would like carers to arrive, how long they will stay and what help you would like. We offer a flexible and personal service that aims to meet your individual needs.

Your Care and Support Plan is reviewed on request, following any changes or at least annually to ensure we adapt to your changing needs.
