About Carebuz

Why Carebuz exists

When a person’s mental capacity is in question, the decisions involved are often sensitive, time-critical and deeply personal. Yet finding a qualified, independent assessor can be unclear and time-consuming.

Carebuz exists to make that process simpler, clearer and more reliable.

Whether you’re a family member concerned about a loved one, a solicitor managing a client matter, or a local authority overseeing ongoing responsibilities, Carebuz makes accessing a high-quality assessment straightforward and dependable.

What we do

Connecting people with the right assessor

We connect individuals, families, solicitors and local authorities with experienced mental capacity assessors.

Assessments are carried out in person by independent professionals, matched on location, availability and expertise.

Our role is to

1

Facilitate timely access to qualified professionals

2

Ensure assessments are carried out to a high professional standard

3

Provide clear, well-structured reports that support informed decision-making

Our approach

A quality-led model

Mental capacity assessments sit at the intersection of healthcare, law and personal welfare. They require sound judgement, independence and clarity.

Independent professional judgement is respected

Assessors reach their own conclusions based on the evidence, and our fee is the same whatever the outcome.

Each case is approached individually

Every assessment focuses on the specific decision, and on the person at the centre of it.

Clear communication at every stage

One point of contact, plain-English explanations and updates when you need them.

We believe better outcomes are achieved when professionals are supported, trusted and allowed to focus on the work that matters.
