Carol’s family have expressed their concerns to you as one of her support workers, that she is becoming withdrawn and having a confidence crisis in her ability to live and manage alone. : After speaking with Carol at length, she has decided that she would be keen to get access to a mobility scooter so that she can travel further from her home in order to socialise.
