Support directed at carers → Carer Assessment

Here is a list of activities other HAH services have used to optimise the way they carry out carer assessments.

  • Assessing and regularly reviewing carer needs (including the whole family) both individually and as a care unit/patient-carer dyad
  • Negotiating which care tasks will be delivered by the carer and how much they are willing and able to do
  • Assessing what equipment and training the carer may need to provide care
