Annotation | If you are providing most of the care for a friend or relative who is an older person or has an illness or disability, you are a carer. This booklet provides information on how to get support, and is arranged in three sections. Section 1 explains how the person being cared for can get a community care assessment, and one's rights to a carer's assessment. Section 2 is a practical guide to preparing for meeting with the social worker who will carry out the assessments. Section 3 explains what happens after the assessments, carers' rights, charging for services, and complaints procedures. (RH). |
