What happens next?
As part of your application, there is an
initial assessment to look at what you need from extra care housing
and any support needs you may have.
You will be invited to look around Thomas
Hardy Court to see the facilities available. A copy of your needs
assessment will be available for you.
The scheme aims to keep a balance between
people who are independent and those who are more frail and because
of this some applicants will be offered a second assessment of
their care needs.
If after either or both of these assessments
it is agreed extra care housing can meet your needs, your
application will be placed on a waiting list.
You will be given further information about
the rent and care costs and advice to ensure extra care housing is
suitable for you.
If we can not offer you a place in extra care
housing we will explain the reason why and how to appeal against
this decision.
