Anyone experiencing mental health problems is entitled to an assessment of their needs with a mental healthcare professional, and to have a care plan that's regularly reviewed by that professional. They should also be able to get a community care assessment from their local authority to look at their social care needs.If someone you care for has their mental health needs assessed, the assessment should identify you as their carer. You should be told about your own right to assessment and support. If the person you care for gives their consent, you should be kept up-to-date and involved in their care plan reviews.If you care for someone who has severe mental health problems, or a range of different needs, their care may be co-ordinated under a Care Programme Approach (CPA). This is a particular way of assessing, planning and reviewing someone's mental health care needs.Someone might get CPA support if they:are diagnosed as having a severe mental disorderare at risk of suicide, self harm, or harm to otherstend to neglect themselves and don't take treatment regularlyare vulnerable.
