It may also be helpful for the person you care for to have their own care and support assessment to help identify any needs they have, and possible options to meet these and help the person to be able to live as independently as possible.
Options may include:
- Equipment and adapting your home.
- Technology to help you live independently.
- Support to live independently including care at home.
- Employing a personal assistant to support your caring needs in the home for the duration you need.
- Care homes and supported accommodation.
- Completing a Family Carers Emergency Plan in case of unexpected time away from your caring role.
Contact our ASSIST team on 0345 602 7050 or email: assist@powys.gov.uk for further information and support on care and support that might be available.
