Information for Professionals
We offer free and confidential advice, information and emotional support to individual carers either on the telephone, through home visits and a range of printed material including our newsletter ‘Aspects’. Staff can also help you find your way around statutory agencies, such as Health and Social Care and signpost you to other appropriate services.
There are also regular Drop-ins and a varied programme of Carers Health Education and Wellbeing Service (CHEWS) events and courses arranged for carers in south Staffordshire, where you have an opportunity to try something meet up with other people in a similar position to you. CASS may also support carers to access work opportunities.
As well as supporting carers who are caring for someone adult or child with a disability or an illness (such as a learning disability, sensory impairment, a health problem and/or a disability related to age) CASS provides specialist services for Mental Health Carers and people with progressive neurological conditions and their carers.
The Young Carers Team will help those Carers up to the age of 18.
