Accessing an assessment of social support needs: perspectives on the process

Jackie Powell

Robin Lovelock

This paper reports on the second phase of a study examining the accessibility to visually impaired people of appropriate assessment and social support in the context of the implementation of the National Health Service (NHS) and Community Care Act 1990. It draws upon interviews with visually impaired people who have recently experienced an assessment, with relatives or other people giving them significant informal support and with front-line workers who assessed their needs.
