Hello. I`ve had my DWP f2f home assessment today.
She was a nice woman....nurse with speciality in complex care needs.
I honestly cant say if it went well or not.
I have put a detailed account of the visit on the PIP/DLA section here if anyone wants to read it.
I`m cream crackered!

Hi @pollyanna1052 ,

Their nice on purpose, so they can trick you into a false sense of security.All women are equal. Deeds, not words.

Aura said:Their nice on purpose, so they can trick you into a false sense of security.I'm sorry but i disagree. There's lots of really nice HCPs out there. I've yet to come across a bad one and i've never had a bad report out of 6 face to face assessments.Yes of course you will get some not so nice ones too. Remember that we will always only ever read the bad stories, hardly ever the good ones. If someone's had a decision they are happy with, they have no questions to ask so we don't hear their story.I would appreciate it if members wouldn't tag me please. I have all notifcations turned off and wouldn't want a member thinking i'm being rude by not replying.If i see a question that i know the answer to i will try my best to help.

we need to hear more good stories

I agree with @poppy123456,
I have been to many, many assessments with people over the years and the majority of the HCPs were really helpful and supportive.
It would be lovely to hear some positive stories as well as the bad ones, but as @poppy123456 said, we only hear about the bad experiences.Joanne

Hope you get a good outcome @pollyanna1052.
While we do hear our share of horror stories here, there are good ones out there to be found!Community Manager
