Immediate Needs Assessment

We are experts at creating easy to read, useful INA’s that make essential and immediate recommendations about life following a life changing injury.

Immediate Needs Assessment after a spinal cord injury

We are able to provide Immediate Needs Assessments for insurers, claimant solicitors and defendant solicitors. We provide factual information and recommendations with an estimate of costs where appropriate. The Case Manager will liaise with discharge teams and statutory services as well as other organisations as part of this assessment, to ensure a full and accurate picture of the current and immediate need of the client is taken into consideration.
