PIP Medical Assessment Home visit was created by blodeuwedd
I am due to have a PIP home Medical Assessment at my home next week. Has the Assessor got the right to request that they look around my home, for example to view an upstairs bathroom or my bedroom?

No they have no right to do this, based on feedback from the forum they don't ask either unlike DLA who often would.

Hi
I had my assessment at home last week and the assessor showed no interest in looking around my home. If you have any aids or adaptions you think are relevant by all means mention them or show the assessor if you wish but they shouldn't snoop. Hope that helps.
