How do we Support People from Minority Ethnic Communities?
Language and cultural support is available for people from Tameside’s black and minority ethnic communities who are going through the assessment and care planning process. A Bi-lingual Co-worker who can speak the language of the person being assessed will accompany any social care member of staff. The Bilingual Co-Worker can visit you with the Assessor to: Provide language skills and cultural support to everyone involved. Offer support from someone who understands your cultural background. Help decide on the best way of providing help for you. Clarify how Adult Services work.
