Adult Carer Support Plan

Every carer has a right to an Adult Carer Support Plan (ACSP). Lanarkshire Carers is commissioned by Health and Social Care North Lanarkshire and South Lanarkshire Health and Social Care Partnership to deliver Adult Carer Support Services to carers living in Lanarkshire. Where appropriate, we also work in partnership with social work.

It starts with a conversation.

An Adult Carer Support Plan can help you and others to understand the impact your caring role has on your life, what’s important to you and who can best provide the support you need, whenever you need it, so you do not reach crisis point.

Making a plan looking at the wellbeing indicators helps you to identify what is important to you now and for the future. An Adult Carer support plan will focus on you and the outcomes you wish to achieve; a copy can also be given to any other person you choose.
