About this audiobook
If you are caring for an ageing parent, the moment someone mentions a 'care needs assessment' can feel overwhelming. This book removes the guesswork. It walks you step by step through the entire process—from the moment you realise an assessment might be needed, to the home visit, the eligibility decision, the care plan, and the financial discussion that follows. You will learn who carries out the assessment, what questions will be asked, and how to prepare so your parent’s voice remains at the centre of every conversation. Practical and compassionate, this guide helps you understand the jargon, know your own role as a carer, and feel equipped to advocate for the support your family deserves. Every chapter respects that your parent is a person, not a problem, and that their consent and capacity matter throughout. Written by an experienced eldercare writer, it offers the clarity you need to turn a potentially stressful encounter into a constructive step toward better care. Part of The Caring for a Parent Library.
