Needs assessment
Plain English definition
From:
Think Local Act Personal (TLAP) Jargon Buster
The process of considering whether you need help or support because of your age, disability or illness. Anyone who appears to have a need for care or support - regardless of how severe those needs are or how much money they have - is entitled to a needs assessment, which can be arranged by contacting the adult social services department at your local council and requesting it.
