Initial Needs Assessment

An immediate needs assessment will give everyone involved in a case an impartial, clear outline of the effects of an accident or incident on the claimant. This assessment requires medical knowledge and experience of local treatment, services and required interventions.

For the best possible outcomes, time is of the essence. The sooner all involved parties understand the immediate impact of an accident or incident, the medical issues that have arisen because of it, and the required case management, interventions and adaptations, the sooner everyone can work towards the right outcome.

• ›Consider potential impacts of ongoing health issues
• ›Provide initial recommendations for treatment, services and assistance
• ›Recommend immediate care requirements and initial goals

You’ll also see how the challenges they face can potentially be overcome with the appropriate interventions.

The assessment you receive will explore all of the relevant information and issues, including (but not limited to):
