Care and health
care diary
In short and in plain language
In a care diary, you write down what a person needs help with.
You also note how long the help takes. You do this over some time.
This can help when the care level is checked. It can also help with an appeal.
Definition
A record in which relatives or carers note over a period of time what a person needs help with and for how long. It can help to make everyday life understandable in the care level assessment or an appeal.
