Carers assessments

Carers Assessments

Do you need help looking after a partner, relative or friend? We want you to get the support you need to make your life easier as a carer.

Getting a carer’s assessment could be the first step to gaining vital support. This is your chance to have a conversation with Adult Social Services to talk about the help you need. The assessment will look at the support you currently get and whether other services could be of use. You will also be offered advice on any benefits you’re entitled to and any other sources of help.

A carer’s assessment is free and anyone over 18 can ask for one. If you would like to have an assessment, call Adult Social services on 029 2023 4234.
