Your parent will need to be assessed for care
Before your parent can receive care, they must be visited by a Needs Assessor. This is a person who evaluates how much help you need in your daily life.
Your parent will be asked questions about:
- what they can and cannot do around the home
- what help they need with daily tasks
The assessor will tell your parent what kind of assistance they need. Your parent may be offered home help or be allowed to enter a rest home or hospital.
