The CUBAS model ensures that no parent is disadvantaged within assessment, or judged by any harsher standards. In fact, CUBAS does not use any one size fits all approaches, and no workbooks or tick boxes. Every assessment is individually tailoredby the assessor to suit every parent, and their particular needs and circumstances. CUBAS assessors offer every support to assist the parent to be fully involved, understand, and to be better understood. Learning and development opportunities are integral within CUBAS, The combined approaches ensure full, fair and meaningful assessments and recommendations every time.

Built upon what actually works with families.

This thoroughly up to date evidence based and comprehensive model of assessment is built upon what actually works with families. The CUBAS approach meaningfully engages parents in the processes, and encourages insight and recognition of their children’s needs. In addition to measuring knowledge and skills, CUBAS explores in detail the range of factors which can obstruct safer parenting, and encourages changes as required. The process also tests parental capacity to learn and change. CUBAS identifies strengths, unmet needs and residual risks, and support requirements.

CUBAS is fully comprehensive

Assessments are undertaken directly with families at any stage of local authority involvement circa 6-8 weeks on average, longer if required. CUBAS ensures relevance, accessibility for all parents, and efficient, professional reporting. CUBAS is designed to remain a fully up to date framework. CUBAS addresses every relevant social issue and potential obstacle to safe care.

Timely Planning Decisions For Children.

Where change is possible, it is frequently evidenced within the process of assessment, thus assisting with more timely planning decisions for children in, or on the cusp of, the care of the local authority.
