How we protect sensitive health information

Families often worry about uploading medical records. These are the practical safeguards we use before, during, and after review.

  • Medical records are stored in AWS London and processed in UK/EU regions.
  • Files are encrypted at rest and transferred over HTTPS.
  • Access is limited to the reviewer handling your case.
  • Medical records and case data are normally deleted 90 days after report delivery.
  • Your medical data is not sold, shared for advertising, or used to train public AI models.

Checked by a person, not AI-only

Every report is reviewed by an experienced CHC advocate before it reaches you. AI does the heavy lifting; a human checks it.

30-day money-back guarantee

If the report does not give you clear, actionable guidance, tell us within 30 days and we refund you.

Mapped to the NHS framework

Your evidence is read against the same 12 domains the NHS assessors use, so the report speaks their language.

Before you buy

This works best when you can upload real records.

A report can only review the evidence available. If you have no records yet, we will point you toward the free screener and records-request path instead.

3 evidence gaps require action before your meeting

Communication, Altered States of Consciousness, and Behaviour are under-evidenced relative to your loved one's actual needs. Addressing these before the DST meeting could strengthen your case significantly.

All 12 DST domains

BehaviourModerate
Moderate

Several incidents of agitation and night-time wandering documented. Inconsistency in recording reduces overall strength.

Evidence found

  • Care home daily notes (March–May 2025): 14 incidents of nocturnal wandering requiring physical redirection
  • GP letter (April 2025): references "escalating behavioural disturbance — increased carer intervention required"

Evidence gaps — action required

  • No formal ABC (Antecedent–Behaviour–Consequence) chart — this is standard evidence assessors expect
  • Incidents described as "managed" in care notes — rephrase to focus on nature and frequency of need, not the response
CognitionSevere
Strong

Strong evidence of severe cognitive impairment with MMSE and clinical correspondence clearly supporting a high DST score.

Evidence found

  • MMSE score 6/30 (February 2025, Dr H. Patel, CMHT) — severe impairment, no orientation to time or place
  • Neurologist report (January 2025): "advanced Alzheimer's dementia with significant functional decline"
  • Care home manager letter: "requires continuous supervision — cannot be left unattended at any time"

Recommendation

Cognition is your single strongest domain. The MMSE score of 6/30 combined with the neurologist's report gives clear clinical backing for a Severe rating. Lead with this in any meeting.

Psychological & EmotionalModerate
Moderate

Evidence of anxiety and low mood present. Stronger clinical language would improve this domain.

CommunicationSevere
Weak

Your loved one's communication needs are likely more severe than the current documentation shows — this is an evidence gap to address urgently.

Evidence gaps — action required

  • No speech and language therapy (SALT) assessment on file — this is standard evidence for communication needs
  • Care notes describe needs as "limited verbal communication" without specifics — ask the care home for a written description of daily communication ability
  • No OT or CMHT correspondence references communication needs

Recommendation

This domain is under-evidenced, not under-qualified. A SALT assessment or a detailed written account from care staff could move this from Weak to Moderate or Severe.

MobilitySevere
Strong

Clear evidence of full dependence for all transfers and mobility. Well-documented.

NutritionHigh
Moderate

Evidence of dysphagia and modified diet present but weight records are inconsistent.

ContinenceSevere
Strong

Double incontinence fully documented with clear care plan.

SkinHigh
Moderate

Pressure area risk documented but no wound records on file.

Breathing—
N/A

No respiratory needs identified in current documentation.

Drug TherapiesHigh
Moderate

Complex medication regime requiring regular review. Documented.

Altered States of ConsciousnessModerate
Weak

This is a critical evidence gap for dementia cases — and one assessors frequently exploit.

Evidence gaps — action required

  • No documented episodes of reduced consciousness or seizure-like episodes in the records provided
  • For dementia cases: request GP notes specifically referencing episodes of unresponsiveness, vacant episodes, or sudden behavioural changes — these are common in advanced dementia and score this domain highly
  • Ask the care home to document any such episodes in writing before the meeting

Recommendation

"Well-managed needs" risk: if assessors see no records, they will score this domain low. Evidence of unpredictable episodes — even if infrequent — significantly strengthens the primary health need argument.

Other Significant Care NeedsModerate
Moderate

Several additional care needs identified that do not fit neatly into other domains.

What this is not.

  • A full Checklist Evidence Pack or MDT family statement
  • Meeting attendance or legal representation
  • A guarantee that the NHS will award funding

Move up when the meeting is booked.

If a Checklist meeting is already scheduled and you need meeting-ready wording, the Checklist Evidence Pack is the better fit.

Questions families ask before ordering.

How long does the report take?

After you upload records and context, analysis plus CareAdvocate review is typically completed within 48 hours.

What if I do not have all the records yet?

You can start with what you have, but the report is more useful when it can review the records assessors will rely on. If you have no records yet, use the free screener and request records first.

Can I use this in an NHS meeting?

Yes. The report is designed to help you prepare and explain the evidence in CHC domain language. It is independent advocacy guidance, not legal advice or a guaranteed outcome.

How is this different from the Checklist Evidence Pack?

The Case Strength Report tells you where the case stands and what gaps to fill. The Checklist Evidence Pack goes further by producing meeting-ready descriptor ratings, narratives, and supporting material.

What if it does not help?

The product includes a 30-day money-back guarantee if the report does not provide actionable guidance.

Start with the clearest view of the evidence you already have.

The Case Strength Report is designed to make the next CHC decision clearer, not to promise what the NHS will decide.
