Care - home assessment

Social Services can arrange services to help you with daily living tasks and remain as independent as possible. When you contact Social Services or someone refers you (for example, your GP), Social Services staff will carry out an assessment.

Staff will talk with you about what you are able to do and look at ways to help you overcome any difficulties. This assessment forms the basis of planning how your needs can be met.

The information you give is confidential and we will only share it with those people who need to know about your situation to help you. We will always ask your permission before sharing that information.
