Course description
Applications for Deputyship have increased since the pandemic. Clients that held off making LPAs started to realise that they needed them but found that all too often they had left it too late, and they lacked the capacity to create one.
If you visit a client who lacks capacity to create an LPA, you should offer to provide the Deputyship Service.
This virtual classroom seminar with expert trainer Sue Ioannou will walk you through the whole process from taking instructions, the mental capacity assessment, preparing the forms, submitting to the court and what happens once the court orders are made. It will offer tips and advice on getting the best chance of your application being accepted without further question or delay.
