Carers and extra support

Plan with the person receiving support and the providers they rely on.

  1. Agree who checks in and what to do if you cannot make contact.
  2. Ask phone and alarm providers how equipment works during a power cut.
  3. Discuss powered-equipment continuity with the care team, without recording medical details here.
  4. Ask energy/network and water providers about registers, and confirm each registration.
