Carer's assessment

Adult carer assessment

If you are over 18 years old and looking after another adult over 18 years old who is disabled, ill or elderly you can have a carer's conversation no matter how much or what type of care you provide, your financial means or how much support you need.

You don't have to live with the person you are looking after or be caring full time. 

You can have a conversation with us regardless of whether or not the person you are looking after has been assessed by the Council, or if they have decided they are not eligible for support.

If you and the person you are looking after agree, you can have a conversation with us about your needs at the same time.
