FACS Low Band

The Government guidance says that needs are low when:
  • There is, or will be, an inability to carry out one/two personal care or domestic routines.
  • Involvement in one/two aspects of work, education or learning cannot or will not be sustained.
  • One/two support systems and relationships cannot or will not be sustained.
  • One/two family and other social roles and responsibilities cannot or will not be undertaken.

Advice and/or redirection can be offered to support people whose needs are low.
