PIP assessment at short notice.

I've just received a text message to ring and arrange a PIP assessment for myself, the message stated they have appointments available in the next 7 days.

The only available one I was given is 9am tomorrow morning.

I accepted it.

Have I made a fatal error.

I can't find anyone to go with me at such short notice.  And going alone terrifies me.

Is it normal to be given less than 24 hours notice of a PIP assessment.  Or are they playing games?

  • It is very short notice but I'd be tempted to take it. If its unsettled you then your needs may be more obvious and it therefore be more likely that you need PIP. 

    Personally I'd prefer short notice. If I was given notice then I would have time to plan and prepare and therefore mask so I wouldn't show my true needs.

    Everyone is different though. You have to do what is right for you.
