\u2018Carers are equal partners in the planning and delivery of care and support. There is a strong case based on human rights, economic, efficiency and quality of care grounds for supporting carers.\u2019 Caring Together: the Carers Strategy for Scotland<\/em>. This is the vision set out for carers in Scotland and a key means of achieving this vision is through improving the uptake and quality of carers\u2019 assessments.\u00a0 The carers\u2019 assessment is the main vehicle through which carers can reflect on and define the personal outcomes they are seeking to achieve.\u00a0 This research aims to explore the outcomes achieved with and for carers through different approaches to assessment.<\/p>\n

This project is being carried out jointly by VOCAL and Midlothian Council.\u00a0 It aims to explore the impact for carers of assessments supported by practitioners using the statutory carers\u2019 assessment framework, as compared to VOCAL\u2019s carer outcomes tool and as compared to a self assessment by the carer.\u00a0<\/strong> In addition, this research seeks to explore the impact of taking an outcome focused approach to carers\u2019 assessments.<\/p>\n
