Planning for an emergency
Whatever arrangements you make, there may be times when the care support you receive breaks down. For example, your Personal Assistant may be taken ill.
You will need to make back-up arrangements to provide cover, you might arrange this with an agency. This is called contingency planning.
If your arrangements break down, you should not be left without the services you need. Contact your Direct Payments Support Team or First Response once you realise that you need help.
