Information & options appraisal > Signposting / gateway service
A service that is a signposting service is one that is an access point for elderly people to other services or resources. They hold information about available services and products and the means of accessing these services, and they can provide access to them. A signposting or gateway service provides invaluable help to older people, because it can provide a one stop shop to identifying their needs and the services or resources to meet their needs. Some resources such as welfare benefits can be very complex to understand, and a signposting service will then help an older person by providing information about specific benefits and how to access them.
