About this session

This session treats caregivers as the expert practitioners they already are, and gives them the system they haven't had time to find. Built specifically for the "The Hidden Workforce" context, this session stays concrete and respects your team's time.

You'll finish with a personal caregiver plan and a clear list of what to do next.

What your people take away

  • Access the difference between Attendance Allowance and PIP — and which to pursue first
  • Navigate the practical scripts for raising caring responsibilities with a line manager
  • Apply the Care Act 2014 caregiver's assessment — a statutory right most caregivers don't use
  • Ask the NHS Continuing Healthcare (CHC) fast-track pathway — most people never hear about it
  • Build the Admiral Nurse support network (Dementia UK) specifics
