Activity If Cabinet were all aged 65 +, one and a half of you would have received a service from us in the year: - We provided services to 6,265 people aged 65 + in This is 15% of the 65 + population in the city The Census indicates one of you will be an unpaid carer To be able to deliver all of the domiciliary (home) care provision, we would need 31 times your number each week - We provide 600,000 hours of domiciliary care per year (more than 1 million contacts) - This is an average of 11,538 hours of care per week - Assuming 37 working hours per week, we need the equivalent of 311 people

Challenges National policy reform – care bill reform and BCF Public service reform – demand vs resources Maintaining quality Commissioning and delivery footprints Distressed local NHS economy Greater efficiency

The Care Bill Very significant legal reform to the way care and support is accessed and funded New specific duties for authorities and health to work together - prevention, promotion, co-operation Additional responsibilities and demands - new carers rights(same as people they care for) - self funders - Shaping the wider care market - new statutory framework for Adult Safeguarding - provides legal basis for personalised budgets - changes to charges to people for their care costs Significant impact on how we work – finance, operations, commissioning, IT, communications and marketing

Better Care Fund Pooled budget of up to circa £47m between LA and CCG to progress transformation (lead commissioner locally agreed). National requirement. 5 main areas - Integrated Local Care Teams / Community Team + (joint assessment and care management, accountable professional, assessment in home) - Frail / Complex (named GP over 75s, clinical support) - Support to live at home (equipment, telecare, homecare, housing) - Intermediate care / reablement (integrated model) - Carers Key Objectives - Reduce pressure on acute and long term care - Joined up approach with shared responsibility to address local issues/demands - Protection of adult social care - Improved efficiency (reduce duplication) with opportunity to reinvest in right services, right place - Improved community provision to support people at home

What needs to happen going forward? Consolidate our current approach Scale up integrated approaches with new delivery model design - demand management Maximise opportunities for self management and self care - culture Introduce new ways of working – new staff new roles – co production Create sufficient leadership and resource capacity to support implementation Strong system leadership is needed not market driven Strengthen demand/ activity / financial modelling/ outcomes – cost benefit analysis

What outcomes do we need to deliver? It’s not just about national reform and meeting requirements but about improving customer experience Treating people with dignity and respect Providing the right care in the right place, first time Cultural shift - focus on person centred care and support Assessment and care at home wherever possible Joined up approaches with health Increased independence and reduced demand for acute services
