Excellent responsive and service from Victoria and Kirsty when we were faced with an urgent need for an assessment. Victoria showed great understanding of my parents situation and their needs. Many thanks to you both. Highly recommended!Posted on Google Craig StoreyTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Cannot praise Gain Capacity Experts enough. I had a short time frame to obtain a capacity assessment for a family member, this was stressful enough yet alone worrying how the assessment would go for my family member. Kirsty organised the assessment and communicated fully throughout, Victoria carried out the assessment with compassion and dignity for my relative. The report was detailed yet easy to understand and arrived the next day in my inbox. Excellent service in every way.Posted on Google Sunil PatelTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Victoria completed a mental health/capacity assessment of my very elderly grandmother recently. I found Victoria to be warm, caring, compassionate and very professional in her assessment approach. I would not hesitate to recommend her to anyone with similar requirements. Thanks Victoria for all your help and understanding, it is very much appreciated.Posted on Google lorraine clarkeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google.
