I also live alone - if you can, have someone with you. Someone who knows you well and can add info that you might forget.

I had my home visit about a month ago now, and it wasn't as traumatic as I was expecting. I had my mother with me for mine and although she didn't say much she was able to add a few things that had slipped my mind.

Hi yes I did have a friend as a witness and also to take notes however the home assessment was cancelled..on the morning what I am trying to establish is can I still request for a home visit even after they have stated that I now need to visit a building assessment centre after the fact that they has looked at my case and sanctioned a home visit .....I am waiting for a phone call from a manager from IAS to explain why...I think it could well be...
of the safety aspect as I have Bi -Polar but also have Fibromyagia & Ostio arthritis. Surly they knew that on the PIP form my query is why wait until the day & time of the assessment for them to ring & cancel yes...staffing maybe an issue but why now insist I go to an assessment centre?

Thanks for your reply....I did have someone with me & they were there to make notes also...my question is can I still maintain on having. Home visit ? After they had already sanctioned one...I await there phone call....

I was under the impression that they could ask me to perform tasks such as how I get into bed how I make a cup of tea...witness my AIDS & Adaptatins ...
