Caring for a person with ARBI at home

The following information provides assistance with caring for someone with alcohol related brain impairment (ARBI) at home.

The decision to care for a person with ARBI at home is a complex one that involves ongoing assessment of the needs of all concerned - the person, family and carer - and evaluation of how well these needs are being met. On this site is a framework that emphasises caring as an ongoing process of assessment, monitoring and evaluation. The stages identified are not to be considered as steps that occur in order - rather they are processes carers will constantly move through.
