Care Needs Assessment via remote evaluation

Our goal is to have some clear guidelines for helping to evaluate elderly or other people who might require their care needs to be assessed prior to asking for a formal healthcare (NHS) “Care Needs Assessment”. Reasons for this may be the need or desire to take care of someone, a relative or a friend. But before a formal care needs assessment is done, there is a period of time when you might think that the person’s health is slowly changing for the worst, declining either physically, cognitively or both due to disease, inactivity or sickness. It is in this period that decline is slow but most likely measurable nonetheless. This measurability is why we developed this matrix, or series of matrices, so that a regular, measurable, quantifiable baseline and health decline slope can be calculated and a personal health care plan can be created. At first this plan is more about the assessment based on the criteria listed, than it is about what action to take as this lives in the realm primarily of the healthcare professionals. But the key is that we have a process to help us to help our friends and family and most importantly a way to identify when that person really does need a medical review. This is very important especially when the people you are concerned about have no local family to provide support.
