  Working in adult social care, it's sometimes easy to forget what a complicated area it can be.

  For people who have never needed additional support, it can come as a surprise that you often need to contribute for some of the services you need. Our new Online Financial Assessment tool is designed to help people better understand this process.

  The digital calculator helps to give residents an indication about how much they might need to contribute toward the cost of their care.

  The web-based tool asks people to complete five sections with financial information after which the calculator will give them an estimated figure of what they might need to pay.

  Further support and guidance can be found here, to give people all the information they need to help them complete their financial assessment. We also have champions across adult social care from each service team/locality who have received a demonstration of the tool and can offer further support.

  Our online assessment tool will be the quickest, easiest and most secure way for people to start the financial assessment process and is part of our digital first approach. People will still be able to use a paper version if they would prefer.

  The digital improvements are all part of our drive to improve our service, making it easier for residents by creating a smoother, clearer pathway for them to access our services.
