Practical step-by-step guide

Finding practical support while living in Gozo

A practical planning guide: questions to ask and documents to organise. Follow the linked canonical service records for sources, criteria and current application routes.

Practical next steps

  1. Start with the local care team and ask which services are delivered in Gozo and which require travel to Malta.
  2. For Sapport enquiries, ask the Gozo office about an assessment and local arrangements.
  3. For older-person community services, ask AACC whether Dar Padova or a home service is the correct starting point.
  4. Before an off-island appointment, ask about access needs, transport booking, accompaniment and whether there is any approved support for costs.
  5. Check whether a remote consultation or local follow-up can be arranged by the treating service.
  6. If overseas care is proposed, confirm the official authorisation route before making travel commitments.
