<p>All Health Professionals receive comprehensive training in disability analysis
which includes a functional evaluation as to how medical conditions and the long-term
medical treatment of those conditions affect an individual. Furthermore, any health
professional undertaking assessments must have at least two years' experience following
registration</p><p> </p><p>It is recognised that, over time, most conditions fluctuate
to some degree and so it is essential that the Personal Independent Payment assessment
works for people with fluctuating conditions. Health Professionals carrying out assessments
are directed to take a view of an individual’s ability over a longer period of time
in order to establish a more coherent picture of the disabling effects of an individual’s
health condition.</p>
