What I Offer
-
Mock Assessments using current Decision Support Tool (DST) paperwork: You will practice undertaking a “mock” DST interview, under my guidance as an experienced CHC nurse assessor. This hands-on experience will help you to understand what to expect and how to effectively present your case during the actual assessment.
-
Evidence: You will understand what “evidence” you and/or the CHC assessor can use to support the assessment process and how to collect this. This evidence you provide can significantly influence the final decision making regarding your eligibility to accessing funding.
-
CHC Checklists: You will complete a full CHC checklist with my professional support and guidance. My checklists cover all necessary aspects, ensuring you are thoroughly prepared and confident to take the next steps in completing the paperwork with your Social Worker, Doctor or CHC assessor. The checklist will help you to identify your support needs and will include “evidence” to be used during your DST assessment.
-
Expert Guidance: You will receive tailored advice and tips from me, a seasoned CHC nurse assessor, on best practice for your assessment interview. I will help you understand the assessment criteria, how to identify your support needs and explain how the assessment is graded to identify your eligibility to CHC funding.
