What is urgent short-term support?
You may need urgent support and advice because you are recovering from a sudden deterioration in your health or a social care crisis. We will listen and talk with you, or your family member, about how we can support you and that conversation may also involve other professionals like your GP or community nurse.
Your family or friends might be able to offer all the support you require or it might be appropriate to help identify and arrange temporary services to support you to get back on your feet. We can explore these options with you.
