Early Help Assessments (EHA) forms and training
Early Help Assessment training is aimed at people working directly with children, young people and families. Our EHA training provides an overview of our family approach to early help and support. The training prepares you to support families in the Early Help process as well as offer, identify and initiate Early Help assessments.
Following the training, we expect you'll work towards or already have access to the Early Help Module.
Are there any standard forms for EHA assessments?
There are standard forms for practitioners in the borough of Rochdale to use on the Our Rochdale website. You can use these to record and share the findings from the assessment. You'll need to register and log in to the Our Rochdale website to access this information.
