Needs assessments
I read last night..sorry dont know how to paste things on here I read..that The Care Act means a needs assessment should state how many hours a caree is entitled to. That's even if s family member is doing half the work.
It said it cant take for granted that a carer will continue caring, and should be like that in case of emergencies.
The amount of direct payment should just be for those paid services though.
My sons assessment is not like this.
Does anyone have hours stated even though family members are meeting a lot of the needs.
