call me jaded Report post Posted July 13, 2009 Hi Caz He sounds just a little inexperienced to me. Who is your care worker's superviser? You should be able to raise your concerns with them, not particularly as a complaint but just to say that you sometimes find communication with him difficult. With the form, send copies of recent medical assessments for the decision-maker (the person who read the form) to see for themselves. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
