The social care assessors supports with:
- Reviewing and assessing people receiving reablement
- Screening/ triaging referrals
Our social care assessors complete home visits to customers between the hours of 9am-4:30pm Monday to Friday. Each locality has an occupational therapist who works alongside our support workers and assessors to tailor individuals’ goals, assess and provide equipment.
The review and strength based assessment are completed during the 6 week reablement period. Customers are involved in all reviews and assessments and progress reports.
