Multimodal Protocol for Assessing Metacognition and Self-Regulation in Adults with Learning Difficulties
Published on: September 27, 2020
Abstract:
The single assessment process has been advocated as a cure-all for some of the duplication and inconsistency of approach to assessment experienced by many older people. Introduced as part of the National Service Framework for Older People ( DoH 2000 ), the single assessment process(SAP) has generally been welcomed for its person centred approach and inclusion of older people. It is possible that with appropriate implementation older people will see less duplication and the avoidance of multiple professional assessments, which in turn could improve the care older people receive.
