Basically  they have  save themselves a bit of their budget by
declaring people not eligible for either Direct Payments  or any form
of Home Care package. Their assessments  glaringly misrepresent the
person being assessed so they are classed as not in need of help. 

Their assessment form is a joke. It has numerous spelling mistakes and
this is an important document. In essence refusing somebody care and
then putting inaccurate information in their files leads to later
problems as you cannot change it.  

I'm wondering if they want the client to have an accident or if they
are depressed commit suicide.


Never trust the Social Work or Council. They'll mess with your head.

I know because I just want to give up now.
