ANGRY :( - PIP ASSESSMENT W/ CAPITA

Hi guys

Capita agreed to do a home assessment tomorrow and am so nervous, what if you ask to look around the house ETC, it'll just be home with my brother, so won't be able to show around, as my legs have been really bad past few days, just think they'll evaluate the little things too much.

Don't know what to expect either !! YIKES

Wish me luck

Thanks

Hi w,

It is only to be expected that you will be nervous, as it is an unknown quantity.

If you have someone there with you, they can take notes, they could even record the session covertly, but if you are to do this, make sure the Capita HCP doesn't know of it, otherwise they can stop the assessment.

Make sure you fully explain your limitations, and do not let yourself be forced in to any particular answers.

If you are asked to carry out any physical activities that cause pain, make sure that you make them aware of this.

If you can't do something without severe pain, tell them why you can't do it, don't simply refuse to do it.

Try not to worry (easier said than done, I know) and best of luck !!!

Reports that we have received thus far are that the PIP assessments are being carried out in a polite and professional manner.
